Somebody needs to call any protestor near Will Pitt
and make sure he knows that there is a media blackout except for LinkTV.

10. What is the problem?
He is blogging live. He already posted something that we as a group cannot confirm (CNN-600,000) and would probably benifit from knowing that there is NO MSM COVERAGE AT ALL=HE IS ABOUT IT for coverage. As word spreads in the crowd this may or may not have an impact. I don't know what your problem with me is but I wish you would find someone else to be snarky to. Thanks for your time.

11. I'm aware he's blogging live. I've been checking in here and there.
But his knowing that he's about it for coverage changes squat. I have no problem with you but I wish you would find something useful to be histrionic about.

12. Here is an example
of me being histrionic.http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x4872626

In this OP I was merely throwing out an idea.

Let's quit wasting time with this; but please don't assume; it comes across that you were assuming. My apologies if I am wrong. Bye.

13. And now I am proven right,

Oh Brother
By William Rivers Pitt

A CNN.com article says, "More than 2,000 people gathered," for the protest. Ye Gods, ya think so? Whoever wrote that article should maybe tune in to the TV station they work for. There are 2,000 people on about 20 feet of sidewalk ... for a dozen blocks.

15. Proven right how?
Info appearing on one guy's blog means shit in the face of a media blackout. Email CNN, the networks, CSpan - telling Will, however laudable a job he's doing, does nothing but "inform" the relatively tiny number of people in his audience - people who already know that mainstream outlets have been underplaying the numbers.
