1. SI SE PUEDE!!!

I have to say I have been to quite a few protest marches going all the way back to Aug 29TH 1970 in E-LA. Maybe now we will get the media to really cover this story as the movement grows.

4. How can the protesters be well-informed if they're not watching

Fox News? Only then can they be fair and balanced and see both sides (the Conservative side AND the Republican side) of the issues!

5. I would add a lot more pluses if I could

Cenk summed it perfectly in the end when he cited Greenwald. Obviously the people in power in the media and in politics want to perpetuate the idea that the protesters are all worthless and don't know what they are protesting.

I would say that almost every protest from the left in the last thirty years or so has been labled as being "chaotic" "incoheret" "confused" or some other damned charge of disorganization or ignorance. Apparantly after the 60's protests were considered meaningless or objects of ridicule.
