1. i thought the march wasn't even set to start for a couple more hours

how can they judge the crowd before it starts?

[spanone]

4. They can't. But that's the American media.

[bluerum]

2. Like I would believe them even if I watched them. eom

[tinfoilinfor2005]

3. Yes, I heard him poo-pooing the size of the crowd.

He shrugged and said maybe it will get bigger as the day goes on.
Time to go to live CSpan and judge for myself.

5. CNN radio just mentioned the march in their 2 minute

newsblurb at the top of the hour. Nothing negative. Just discussing that it's gonna be a big antiwar rally with thousands of people.

[bullimiami]

6. i thought the expected turnout was 100s of thousands. maybe as many as

500,000.
i heard cnn radio report there could be 10s of thousands. and you heard them report it as thousands?

pitiful lack of objective news in this country. all of the major media has an agenda.

7. It's only just begun...I've switched to C-SPAN. There, you can draw your own conclusions.

CNN makes money off war.

8. they refused to cover the last march that had

...about 500,000. So, I have no doubt that the propaganda is in full force and will again attempt to minimize the effort.

9. It is on their web site now, also.

10. Well... I tuned in and

it didn't look as massive as it will when it picks up steam later. It's still early.

11. Last time, DC cops blocked busloads of people from getting to the mall

expect the same today

[chelsea0011]

12. And why would CNN use that march to compare with?

The ant-choice crowd have been gathering to years and years every year. It is an outing for them. But why would CNN think to compare these two? Hell, there may even people from the anti-choice crowd there today also.

13. Just tune to C-SPAN.

John Conyers is speaking at this moment.
