1. I think that's because
they separated into several groups and all marched to Parliament Hill from different directions. Some smaller groups got isolated as well, and had to rush to join up. So it all depends where you're looking.

2. Nice. I guess, technically, they're correct
After all, "thousands" is made up of at least 10 "hundreds" right? HAHAHAHA

4. Why does anyone even bother with the US media anymore?
Edited on Tue Nov-30-04 06:15 PM by Flammable Materials
It's obvious that there is no media in America to speak of anymore. Just varying degrees of propaganda: The blatant propaganda for those who believe that thinking for themselves equals treason, and the subtle, more insidious propaganda for those who haven't quite yet given up the freedom to think - a "Voice of America Homeland Service", so to speak.

Neither one offers objectivity. Each one slants toward the right, just at different angles. All of them exist to shift the nation's mindset toward a oligarchical, theocratic, fascist state.

There is no longer any reason to look within our own borders in a vain search for objective journalism. We have to look beyond our own "Virtual Iron Curtain" to find the truth.

EDIT: Proofreading.

It's a sad era for this country.
