I was just at the march on corporate media in NYC -- ask me anything...

We walked down 6th Ave. in Manhattan past CNN and Fox chanting cool things like, "Tell me how the Pentagon talks! Through the lying lips of Fox!"

It was awesome.

2. It was pretty cool...

Lots of cool signs, posters, t-shirts. Of course this is the one time I didn't bring my camera.

3. From where I'm at, we are NOT seeing much of anything
that goes on outside of MSG. A few arrests and that's it. :o(

Thanks for doing your thing. Wish I could participate.

6. I was there too!
I was at work and heard the yells coming from Blackrock. I asked my boss if I could go check it out and was told "No problem." Wasn't Rev. Billie grand?

11. hey, did you see the protest in the convention center??

When the young Republican was stomping on that girl? Just curious because no one else seems to know what I'm talking about.
