For the Next Three Years, Count On US Corporate Media to Ignore Protests Against The Big Fascist Picture.

Protection racketeers traffic in fear and the messages below.
Corporate media convey their owners' messages, not the messaging of The People.

Beware of technocratic & corporate protection racket lies behind "news" about "wars and rumors of wars"; beware of messages about "dangers to your way of life" that only oligarchs can "fix." RW media traffic in lies and fear.

But do not fear neighbors. Not even Republican neighbors.
Listen to them, respond with questions, facts, sources, numbers;
e.g., on Saturday, 5,000,000 protested across 50 states (ACLU), and
3,000 to 5,000 at the DC parade (Yahoo News)
The only protection we have is to build trust, be a good neighbor, and have good neighbors.

The next 3+ years we can and will beat this.

1. They will ignore it until they get laughed at and criticized enough. The people know something BIG is going on

A really great thing about mass protests is that they are widely visible. They can't be denied. So CNN and NYT can only ignore them, not deny them. Before long, editorial meetings will come to the conclusion that they will continue to lose viewers and readers if they don't cover them. It will show up in comments online and subscription cancellations.

When people drive by masses and long stretches of protesters, they know.
When streets are blocked for protests, they know.
When local TV shows protests, they know.
When their neighbours talk, they know.

It can't be hidden. Keep up the pressure. Thanks to everyone who keeps turning out.

2. Amen. They've earned all the public scorn they get.

Thanks for your post!
