Coverage of the Occupy Wall street movement was extensive in the beginning of the movement. Whether the news program agreed with the movement or not, there was ample coverage of what the movement stood for and the message that they wanted America to receive.
Every news station had coverage of this new social movement. There were personal interviews and expert opinions on the movement. The news programs took the message of the movement and dissected it.
I understood who the 99% were and who the 1% were and what each was fighting for in the beginning. Then the coverage showed a break down in the philosophy of the 99%. Some demonstrated for global human rights while other protested “the delusion of free will” and governmental control.
Despite the recorded breakdown, the Occupy Wall street movement became global and now has people planning a global protest on Saturday, December 10. This protest encourages every citizen in every country to stand up for their rights and take back democracy.
