CNN reporter from OWC:
(Just caught a snip this morning between the anchor in the studio and the "man in the mob" :))

Liberally paraphrased, natch:

Anchor: This has been likened to the Civil Rights movement, do you think it's really that big?

MIM: Hmmmm (thinking) not YET, but every day we're seeing more and more people from all walks of life and all ages joining in, so it is growing.

Anchor: House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (:puke:) referred to this as a mob...

MIM: Anyone in this crowd would take offense to that. Just look around - this is anything but a mob. They've almost organized little cities. Referring to them as a mob is wrong.

1. Good for MIM!
Who cares what Eric Cantor says? In a way, I'm glad the reporter gave MIM an opportunity to respond to Cantor's insult.

4. I should make it clear that the MIM was a paid CNN reporter, not
just your run-of-the-mill MIM, so I was pleased to hear it coming from the MSM! I got the impression that he was impressed and supportive even though he couldn't come out and say it. But I could have been projecting. :shrug:

5. We are seeing the MSM arise from their slumber. They don't
always get it right, but they are realizing this is for real. Of course Fox will never get it right, because they aren't allowed to stray from the orthodoxy.
