Didn't the media wring their hands

and apologize for under-reporting the protests leading up to the war. I was at all three protest in NYC last year and one in DC. Today's in NY was as large or larger than any of them. Looks like the same old sh*t from the media whores.

1. An example of some of today's "reportage"...
I happened upon Carol Lin, who showed virtually nothing but a couple of arrests, and pontificated about how it was not as "violent" as "expected".

Then, after showing some video of some cleverlly costumed protesters, exclaimed:

"How can anyone take them seriously!" (All the time with her fake smile plastered across her face).

If SHE can't take hundreds of thousands of people seriously, she should quit her sinecure tonight.
