Yahoo is blocking Protest Pics

from the RNC convention.

Go over to there and search under News Photos and you'll see what I mean.

Most of the stuff that was there yesterday is gone, and there is nothing from today.

I just heard a report that they arrested 30 cyclists that were protesting?

Anyone got cam links? Maybe folks should monitor some cams?


Edit: (LOL) report says 30, not 10000

6. I look at stuff everyday

I looked yesterday and there were a bunch of pics from the streets of NYC. Today most of those pictures are gone and there are only a handful of new ones for today.

This is the same thing the news organizations did during the Anti-War protests in NYC before the Iraq War. There a news blackout from 12 - 6 (the official time of the protest) on all cable news outlets, except for the NYC area.

I'm just smelling the first hints of them doing it again.

9. What I don't get...

The police union supports Kerry and are in fact mad as hell with bush.

The NY police REALLY support Kerry and are REALLY mad as hell at bush.

So how come the NY police are arresting bicyclist protesters protesting bush?

10. They shut down the cams

"being serviced"

Didn't we go invade & occupy Iraq because some Iraqis couldn't protest and make their voices heard? Or so the latest lie goes.

11. No SHIT !!!????

DAMN, WOW I guess homeland security is all over it ! I guess we can't have the police riot on tape. RNCnn hasn't mentioned a thing, just another quite news night.

12. Not all are "being serviced"

I just clicked several and they're running. Earlier today the one at 34th and 8th was down but I just watched it.
