On the Media's "Breaking News Consumer's Handbook: Protest Edition"

1. TV news will fixate on incidents of violence, even if rare and uncharacteristic of the overall event.
2. Opponents will try to delegitimize protesters by claiming they are "paid" or otherwise dishonest. This is almost always untrue.
3. Measuring crowd size is an imprecise, politicized enterprise. Be skeptical of hard numbers: view aerial photos and compare sources.
4. Beware loaded terms such as "riot" and "rebellion." They often reveal the political leanings of the media outlets using them.
5. Crowds at protests are so diverse that the media can tell any story they want. Beware broad conclusions based on extreme people or events.
6. Coverage often considers whether protesters left a mess, or helped clean up a subtle jab or praise. The truth is somewhere in the middle.
7. Protest coverage tends to be episodic, not long-term. Seek out stories that place events in their larger political and historical context.
8. The media will try to tabulate immediate successes and failures of protests. Remember, their impact may not be felt for years.

Yesterday at the Met, a sign the the UN is in session, 8 guards blocking off a radius around some dignitary, wherever he wandered off too people had to clear away. My inner New Yorker indignation kicks in like when a movie shoot blocks off your path on a sidewalk. WHO YHE FUCK ARE YOU?! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‘
