The NAACP / Al Sharpton march to the Mall will take place at 1pm after a 2-hour rally at Dunbar High School--I'd expect C-SPAN to provide coverage of that event too.

C-Spin is owned by the cable corporations...set up by rushpublican Brian Lamb that soon became the gingrich network airing his after hours speeches (to an empty chamber) that made him a right wing cult hero.
The network has a steady parade of right wing hacks from the Heritage Institute and AEI...seems like they live at the place.
Lately they've done a poor job hiding their true colors...

2. It's a Fox "news" sponsored rally, |
|
A hate & propaganda fest.
But regardless of its topic, why are ANY other media covering it? It's their COMPETITOR's show. Yet all the channels are giving it publicity. It was on the national news last night.
That is bullshit.
It would be like PepsiCo promoting a sale on Coke products. Why are Fox "news" competitors promoting it?

5. IMO the most memorable thing about this event so far is the cheesy music |
|
Sounds like vaguely religious "Muzak" you might have heard in an elevator 20 years ago.

OMG it sounds/looks like the entire thing was created for morons.
I feel sorry for these people more than anything for they are hopeless.
