Demonstrations are going on in the US state of Wisconsin: But you would not know it walking past a news stand in the USA. American papers have photographs of protests in other countries on their front pages, with no mention of the estimated 70,000 protesting on US soil, fighting for their rights at home…
Yes – My contacts have scoured the American news stands such as in Atlanta Georgia and New York City and the coverage up to now has been pathetic compared to the goings on in Egypt, Libya and other parts of the world…
Smile you live in a stifled American society!
What shocked me several days ago: Lawmakers in the US were rallying the troops against protesters and the top republican in the US derided their tactics, saying this was “not a way to have an adult conversation.” Yes the process was in the works to have troops used to control the crowd. Yes the news said that lawmakers were at a presence of danger. That no guarantee could be made for the safety of said lawmakers…
No actually it is the correct way and you want to start a issue you can not handle then send the troops against the people in Wisconsin. I hear America talk down the way it is handled in Libya but yet we think in the same circles when it happens to us…
The American news should have this issue (Wisconsin) plastered on the front page 24 hours a day. What is happening in America needs real coverage by the main news. The main news needs to get off the government nipple and report. They would have in the old days of journalism…
