Seattle News Media Missleading About OCCUPY SEATTLE...



....Saying everything from there were more arrest today to saying they are violent and threatening non participants..NOT TO MENTION that the OWS Seattle movement is dying.... Just got a message from one of the organizers saying at 5:15pm there are over 200 of which he expects 70 of them will spend the night in the Center...the news has been reporting it has been a 50 and dissipating through the day.

One reporter said OWS Seattle will be gone by the weekend.

Fucking LIARS...

4. Given that the 400,000 strong Washington State Labor Council just declared solidarity
I'd say they are wrong about this weekend.

http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archives/2011/10/06/washington-state-labor-council-declares-solidarity-with-the-occupy-seattle-protesters

On behalf of the Washington State Labor Council, AFL-CIO, and our 500 affiliated local unions and over 400,000 union women and men we want to express our solidarity with “Occupy Seattle” for standing up for and speaking out on behalf of the 99% who have victimized by corporate and political decisions that put the interests of corporate America and Wall Street before the people.
"We have also declared Oct. 10 – 14 as a week of action around the country to support jobs and a fair economy,"

6. Occupy Seattle on Facebook says:
UPDATE: According to our lawyer all the people who were arraigned at court today have been released without bail. There is at least one person who was not arraigned today and we are still waiting for more information on that front.
