Occupy the major TV media news outlets.
Let's protest how pathetic they are and see if they report it. i very rarely now go to CNN or even MSNBC - i can't stomach their inanity but even less their deciding what it is they want us to know and not know.

2. Are you advocating going inside their offices and taking over?
Or do you mean demonstrating outside their buildings?

3. They are thankfully non-violent. Imagine the field day the cops and news would have if they broke
anything.

They're doing this the right way. The media have no choice but to reveal themselves corporate puppets through their lack of response and the tainted response some have given. The light is shining on them and they're attempting to scuttle back underneath their rock...it's not going to happen.

5. Ugh. I hope that they didn't actually intend that as the insult it is.

6. The way they've marginalized the whole story, hard to imagine they didn't.
