Interesting.

I would like to say that since Occupy, I've noticed this group is getting very savvy.

Yesterday in my advertising class, students presented market research questionnaires they had done with their peers as respondents. Among the findings:

--radio has very little credibility
--TV doesn't have much more

Among the "not so good:"

--many of them are completely uninterested in the news

Many are, however. I had many students who demonstrated with OWS and also many who wrote papers and speeches about it.
