Dammit! They had a live feed of protestors outside the WI capitol and they just shut it off. And it was beautiful too. There was a really big crowd of protestors and a bunch of them were on the steps holding big red letters that spelled out: SHAME
grrr

1. The protesters are too peaceful |
|
And there are way more than they could get teabaggers on site.
CNN or any of the other will try to bury this story unless it gets violent. Sad to say!

16. We don't need the corporate media anymore. |
|
Any coverage they provide will be divisive and destructive.

5. Maybe the protesters should start wearing goofy hats with teabags hanging from them to get some |
|
attention, and start misspelling their signs.

7. Why are we shaming only CNN? I'd say we could name several |
|
other media outlets which deserve to be shamed also.

But for a while CNN at least had a camera aimed at the WI capitol. That's all I'm sayin'.

13. It was too peaceful and too big. They don't want people |
|
to see that. They want the public to believe that the protestors are a small fringe group that could become violent. They can't show big peaceful crowds and say that so it's better to not show it and ignore it when possible.
