NBC leads with protests

[malaise]

Tune in

[malaise]

1. Coverage of the world

Of course they're showing the violence in Rome but admit that demonstrations were largely peaceful in England- part of a movement which started in the UN\S.

On to Germany, Australia, Hong Kong, Paris - Spain-300,000 - back to New York - it's like New Year's Eve in Time Square. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaah hahahaha- Tax the rich

This is magnificent

3. My mom called me to turn on NBC.

Heavy coverage.

[malaise]

5. Amazing - full five minutes so far

with very good coverage. Even the poll showing support is being discussed.

[sarcasmo]

19. Good to see the mainstream puppets wake up.

[aquart]

29. As Jon Stewart said, "They've gone from blackout to circus."

[Glimmer of Hope]

6. Wooo!! Even the Tundra got coverage!

[malaise]

7. Excellent coverage

Good for ratings too :evilgrin:

[Glimmer of Hope]

9. And Obama has $$$$$$$$$$$$!

8. The 800 pound gorilla that just won't go away.

They've got to say something.

[moondust]

10. 300,000 in Madrid.

Geez.

11. Pretty good coverage, but this event seems big enough to deserve

a much broader field of reporting.

I was pretty disgusted when a woman reporter said that the REAL test of OWS influence
would be seen at election time. Ummm....that's a pretty narrow and shallow view of
just what's going on here. It's waaaaay beyond which politician the ptb decide to
put in office. People get that the system is broken and don't look to Washington to
lead the change.

13. Remember tax day with the tea party events.. They covered them

all day live forever. No one but the live feeds is doing the job the reporters should.

[markpkessinger]

15. That narrow and shallow analysis is all most of the media is capable of n/t

[malaise]

23. Good points but remember

they ignored the protests at the beginning.

[Dover]

25. True. And considering that the only thing being aired on the other stations is NASCAR

and football, well....nuff said.

[Hubert Flottz]

12. That's great!

May the ball keep right on rolling!

[shcrane71]

14. I'm surprised (but elated) that media outlets aren't ignoring this like they did the peace protests

prior to the Iraq invasion.

20. There were so many reporters at OWS today.

I was interviewed by some newspaper, I'm not even sure - my friend was interviewed on camera. We were constantly walking by people being interviewed.

[Dover]

21. Ha! They also just did a story about moving your money to credit unions, comm. banks, etc!.

The story made all the new bank fees look really snarky and interviewed a couple who
moved their money when the bank started charging them money to keep their money in
the bank!!! They moved it to a credit union and while it was a bit of a pain in the butt
to got through that process they said it was worth it on principle.

24. The tide is turning

Only the people can force change

28. what was the largest Tea Party demonstration ever?

Glenn Beck's? (Which I seem to recall was pretty small considering all the whoop-de-doo that preceded it.)

[proud patriot]

31. Yeah I think so

and it took them a year of fox pushing it to get that turnout
