The Media Love Occupy Wall Street

From ABC News, dated October 8, 2011:



If you read THIS by Bill Ayers, you'll see that the Occupy Wall Street Movement has a big tent. Excerpt:

They have taken our houses through an illegal foreclosure process, despite not having the original mortgage.

They have taken bailouts from taxpayers with impunity, and continue to give Executives exorbitant bonuses.

[...]

They determine economic policy, despite the catastrophic failures their policies have produced and continue to produce.

They have donated large sums of money to politicians, who are responsible for regulating them.

[...]

They purposefully keep people misinformed and fearful through their control of the media....

I read excerpts from the list to a conservative friend the other day. She gasped! In her words, "Well, there is a lot there that I agree with."

It's no surprise that the mainstream media are promoting Occupy Wall Street.

And it's easy to write off these protesters.

But...

if the group manages to get out a big-tent theme, people who wouldn't ordinarily join in WILL join in.

Brush fires of discontent are popping up all over the place. From the Left, the Right, and the Center.
