A little factoid the MSM will not cover

[nadinbrzezinski]

You know how many people were watching berkeley last night over many streams? Mind you this was twelve thirty at night PST. 30,000 people. That's the estimated audience.

For channels that get little FORMAL advertising that's not too shabby. In fact, at that time of night not shabby at all.

I just wanted to share that with you. I mean when the argument is made that eyeballs will not be attracted to this...audiences are just building.

[Lint Head]

1. I was watching.

[nadinbrzezinski]

2. So was I. Sleep, when I die.

:-)

[slay]

31. Me too

and the fuckheads who think they are in charge need to KNOW we are watching - and they do.

3. The Un Rec crew is at work on this thread, and so...

it's worth pointing out again that Republicon-owned corporate media has rendered itself irrelevant. Many more thousands of people GET that, every day. It's the lies, the spin, the fluff, and the deliberate misdirection -- corporate media no longer serves the truth or the people of the USA.

4. The UnRec crew just can't help their twitchy little fingers!

;-)

[nadinbrzezinski]

5. Well I care little over the unreccers

It's just one more tool...

[daleanime]

6. They never have....

it's just gotten to the point where it's impossible to ignore it.:grr:

[Obamanaut]

7. Unrec for complaint about unrec.

[SpiralHawk]

8. You are totally wrecking this thread

[nadinbrzezinski]

9. LOL that's what he does

[Angry Dragon]

11. .............

:thumbsdown:

[Tesha]

26. That's okay -- just for you, I rec'ced it (NT)

[Obamanaut]

10. I'm sure MSM would cover the meta factoids. The little ones, not so much.

No one worries overmuch about them little factoids.

[nadinbrzezinski]

12. Alas, not that I can help, that is not a small one

You got something better to do though.

15. Then how do you explain the non-stop coverage of the Tea Party

when four or five of them would show up for a 'rally'? Right, you cannot...but thanks for playing anyway! :rofl:

The M$M sides with the elites...it is just so simple even a dullard can detect it from 50 feet away.

Seem people worries alot about things they play off as little things.

:rofl:

22. The MSM were at Berkeley last night. Almost all of them.

When the police announced they intended to start arresting peaceful protesters after, unconstitutionally (you would think the media might have mentioned that little factoid) declaring the protest to be 'illegal', the Corporate Media turned off their cameras and left. Nothing proved more who they are working for. Same way they left Oakland just before the Brutal OPD attacked and nearly killed peaceful protesters. But we have a citizen's media now so they are more or less irrelevant at this point and simply acting the way we expect them to.

Those 30,000 who were watching, tweeted and FB'd and emailed their followers to let them know that once again the Corporate Media was censoring the news on behalf of their Bosses. By today, millions of people learned something they would not have learned had they been watching the Corporate Media coverage, or probably it's more correct to say, the information was simply more confirmation of what an increasing number of Americans already know.

[nadinbrzezinski]

23. And the MSM was not there for a call of student strike

:-)

We were.

[sabrina 1]

24. Lol, true Nadin, we were, in the middle of the night!

[nadinbrzezinski]

25. Sleep, nice concept.

COFFFEEE!!!!!!

[Rex]

13. The M$M works for the elites and sides with them.

So it only makes sense that more and more people are turning off the cable box and going onto the internet to WATCH from an alternative point of view. MOST Americans know that the M$M are bought and paid for mediawhores. Too many years have passed for even the dullest of dullards not to notice.

AND that has the MSM all in a tizzy...getting called on their shit makes them snippy.

[nadinbrzezinski]

14. Oh tell me about it

Calling local station on it was fun.

[Rex]

16. 'Seem people worries alot about things they play off as little things.'

Sorry, that is just TOO funny! :rofl:

As is witnessed by the panicked unreccers in this thread. So scared of the house of cards falling to the ground, fear not little ones.

It is already down.

[Scuba]

17. That's a lot of People to be watching. A lot. Thanks for noting. n/t

[Fumesucker]

18. I tried to watch but couldn't get a feed that wasn't stuttering big time. n/t

[Rex]

19. Demand was far ahead of supply.

Lag and packet loss.

[Fumesucker]

21. That was my conclusion.. n/t

[nadinbrzezinski]

20. Infrastructure will need to grow

I know.

[freshwest]

28. The 1% will try to make it harder; perhaps the broadband program will help. Thanks for news.

29. i was watching..it was amazing and i wouldnt have even tuned in if i hadn't seen a thread here with

a heads up..it was late and i had just crawled under the covers and checked my laptop..i thought all hell was going to break loose as i had seen what the police did to those kids earlier in the day. The mayors number was running across the bottom and the crowd was extraordinary. I'll never forget that livestream. It was amazing live video and I was so proud of them and the way they handled themselves and the things they chanted.

[nadinbrzezinski]

30. That it was

Incredible video, raw video
