"The OWS protests are losing their national luster..."
Lead line for local newscaster on KCRG. Is that so? Or is he just making it up?

2. Well, is the newscaster just blowing smoke out the ass, or are they
citing reasons for their opinion?

3. The Occupy movement had luster? When? Who said so?
Well, now that many of the usual tactics have failed, it's time to say that the Occupiers have lost their luster. This from the same folks who never granted it luster in the first place.

I have delivery of a grain of salt the size of Mt. Rushmore. Please sign here.

4. A pipedream by Corporate America. Cops are refusing to arrest
now so the M$M will have to up the ante on making The People go home so their paymasters can finish stealing money from the taxpayers.

5. The bigger and bigger the media blackout gets...
The larger the impact Occupy is having.

I notice no coverage of the refusal of Albany/Capital District Police and State Police Troopers to arrest/evict OccupyAlbany.

6. He's just throwing shit up against the wall
to see if it will stick. Most of our media are nothing more than broadcast trolls.
