24. vietnam protests were televised, though
Edited on Fri Nov-26-04 09:00 AM by rosyhue
as we know the media ignores large protests now - and always emphasizes the negative. People also saw war footage and soldiers returning in coffins weekly during Vietnam. Our weenie fueled media craftily refuses to show realistic war images to keep the US public nice and sheltered. Media heads are nerds...not rebels.

A protest outside the BBC office in NYC - expressing disdain for *American media* is the way to go about things.
The BBC would televise it.
