Media blackout of protest has been going on for some time.

Whether it was the egg throwing on day one of Smirky the Chimperor's reign, the countless anti war demos, or others.

For example, how many of you knew this even happened:

I am not surprised. There was zero coverage. What little there was was quickly downplayed.

It has been well planned over the years. There hasn't been a free press in America since I don't know when. Even Edward R. Murrow was sacrificed.

Tea Party coverage? = bought and paid for, controlled, scripted, trying to take over the 'grassroots' identity.

My suggestion, be the Media.

1. i have pretty much stopped watching any msm. not even the today show.

i haven't watched the national evening news shows in a while now but was watching the today show which isn't really supposed to be news, but since they parade through the wingers and barely give anyone else any time.... fuck them.

2. It should be clear that Homeland Security, the FBI and media owners

all share an interest in curtailing a general awareness of the egregious activity of rich activists.

One doesn't have get too deep into wondering about how a Homeland Security department maintains a secure homeland to realize that preventing situational awareness of proteters across the country is something for which HSD probably has contingencies.

We are blaming the media because they are the puppet show. We speculate about who the puppeteers really are and blame the media moguls, but do we go far enough in wondering who wrote the current puppet show?
