      If they are streaming it I can't find it on the website. My guess they pulled the plug for low turnout. Now the can tell us how "10s of thousands of people" were there

        They'll tell us there were at least a million people in the streets of DC protesting. 99.9999999% of those people will be invisible though.

      I suppose if rev. wright showed up calling the United States the land of the greed and home of the slave, it would be okey-dokey for the thought czars at media matters (for very little)...

      Speaking truth to/about progressives....

      It's on C-SPAN 3 as well.

          Oh, I see now. Thanks, bintx, for reiterating the roots of proudcon's comment. Without that, I would have had a hard time figuring out it's relevance.

            I think "Huh" about sums it up. However, I think proud con might have an ethernet channel that Media Matters correctly identified as a "newtwork."

        Rev. Wright doesn't speak for me. The problem with conservatives who watch Fox is that they have been propagandized so much by Fox that they no longer recognize the truth when they hear it. If you listen to a lot of what Glenn Beck says, he is being very greedy and he wants more people to be greedy. He feels we are entitled to it because America is exceptional. America is a country, that shares the world with a lot of other people, perhaps we should use resources more in portion to our population rather than our credit rating.

        I suppose you might someday wrap your head around what spotlighting media misinformation entails. But I highly doubt it.

        Thank you for providing a link. I tried to find it on Fox on line. I would estimate crowds at about 25,000 or less. It would seem that 1st Street is open to traffic and the crowd only goes back to First Street. Not a lot of people.

        Do you understand the difference between C-Span and Fox? C-Span is a PUBLIC AFFAIRS network which has no advertising except for its own products. PUBLIC AFFAIRS meaning open to ALL, no bias.

        Fox is a commercial enterprise.

        You are talking about two different entities.

        As for Rev. Wright . . . what the heck does he have to do with anything?

      There's not even a mention of the rally on the front page of the website. My guess is there were probably more congressmen there than outraged tea party types.

      And, in an unrelated story, Fox news again VEHEMENTLY DENIES President Obama's recent characterization of the network as "an arm of the Republican Party" . . .
