In a typical right wing style rat-f*king, metro is trying to convince people that it’s not Wall Street that steals our money and ruin our economy. It’s those protesting them.
This cover runs in NYC, PA and other cities
and this one is made especially for Boston: 
Hmmm… why compare the income of a person with the funds of an entire movement? Disingenuous much?
, Just one word for Metro and the rest of the media: unlike the banks you are protecting, OWS does share its bounty with everyone. here’s some propaganda of the opposite kind from Daily News
Occupy Wall Street campground becoming spot for vagrants, ex-cons & ‘takers’ to call home
So, who is sharing and who isn’t?
This should be good news if it were true and didn’t look like that OBL lieutenant being captured and killed over and over again
Wait: wasn’t there a mishun accomplished with NBC crews a couple of years ago? Wasn’t there a promise of 18 months back in 2008? And aren’t there occupiers still remaining in Iraq? Does this mean Blackwater remains in charge of it all now?
Anyway, it’s a good campaign cover, this one.
I didn’t understand why tens of fire engines are blocking Broadway, south of Liberty Plaza and north all the way to City Hall Park, including cross streets. They were all empty, with the lights on. Cops were saying yes to our questions about a possible fire. Up at City hall one cop said “there was a fire, they put it out” yet they kept coming.
At one point I thought it was in solidarity with OWS so, when I finally saw some firemen I asked. The looks I got were so dirty, I started wondering if they are not here to do what Sanitation failed.
In the park they had a parents/kids night
a farmers’ rally against Trader Joe.
I came with a winter coat that is too big on me after losing 74 lbs as the nights go to 48 degrees now.
She was selling buttons for $5 (you can get them for free from OWS in the morning – just leave a contribution)
If you want to help, this i what they need
Update
I eventually found out that there was indeed a fire but still five blocks of trucks seems fishy. Note the qualifiers in the article
The fire was on the 28th floor of the building, which is next to the park where Occupy Wall Street demonstrators have been protesting corporate greed. The fire department says there doesn’t appear to be any connection between the fire and the protest.
Oh, I know some blog denizens who are bitterly disappointed by this.
It was cold out there.
Michael Moore stopped by.
I couldn’t stay late enough for the Gen Assembly.
I’ll try again soon.
One working TV had appropriately enough a Warren interview on
There’s no denying the streak of anti-semitism in some political circles, many on the left. I can think of a number of anti-war demonstrations I left/declined to attend for that reason.
The sign captured in Metro’s cover is one of those, although the sign next to it, kinda takes the wind from ADL’s sail. This being the same ADL closely allied with Bush/Christian right and therefore has little credibility on anything.
