Occupy Sesame Street Fails To Gain Supporters
#rejectedFriday from our friend @rejectedonion
Phone numbers for New York City news desks to call regarding Occupy Wall Street developments in New York City area. Please be aware that this is a Saturday night and these assignment desks will be LIGHTLY STAFFED. Also, most TV crews will, quite frankly, be covering the Yankees / Tigers game. Call them with SOLID news tips. Do NOT call them to report rumors or unverified information. Call them with VERIFIABLE information (e.g. police arrest of a protestor and booking; documented instance of police brutality). Do NOT call these desks to complain about coverage — you WANT them to cover the story.

I have my problems with Drudge, but good on him, playing up this story.
The Only Thing I’m Asking for is Revolution.
media blackout
twitter and facebook are censoring #occupywallstreet tags
not to mention that virtually all news stations are either ignoring or downplaying the protests. fuck ‘em.
The revolution will not be televised.
And apparently not tweeted either.
