MSM Rita coverage will swamp Sept. 24th D.C. protest coverage
since the MSM can only do one big story at a time.

Of course a potentially lethal storm in the already devastated Gulf region, merits top coverage, but the corporate MSM that would like to look the other way on reporting the anit-war movement now has an "excuse" to ignore it. My guess is it will be barely a footnote on the evening news.

Are any big, big Hollywood celebs scheduled to speak at the rally? If Pitt or Jolie showed up, THAT would get cameras rolling. How sad.

1. I'm afraid you're right, but I'm still attending the OKC rally.

3. Once again, God takes care of his boy,
Dubya and Rove are probably happy about this national disaster. Anything to get the people's minds off the war and the protest.
