Whats In The Cards For OCCUPY WALLSTREET

Among those part of and concerned with the Occupy Wall Street movement, it's very common to hear complaints about the lack of mainstream media coverage. There's even a sign at the occupation's media center that says, "Welcome to the media blackout." To a large extent, the blackout is real.
Online, there have been accusations of outright censorship. Yahoo has admitted to "not intentional" blocking of emails with links to occupywallst.org, blaming their spam filter. (This excuse is not widely believed, but plausible—I've seen the site trigger non-Yahoo spam filters as well.) Twitter has similarly blocked #occupywallstreet from being listed as a trending topic. (This may be because it keeps being throttled by Anonymous bots—or, more conspiratorially, because a considerable stake in the company is owned by JPMorgan Chase, which also just donated $4.5 million to the NYPD.)
Really, though, what do you expect? Resistance movements should not count on coverage by establishment news outlets, much less favorable coverage. Mainstream media are usually a part of a movement's opponent, and they certainly are in this case. The movement's job, then, is to make its actions so irresistible that the media have to cover it, despite themselves. In an instructive essay about her experience doing media relations during the fight for civil rights in the 1960s, Mary King writes:

Attentive news coverage can never be taken for granted or assumed. It must be won. Gaining the attention of the news industry is one of the central functions that must be planned by a nonviolent movement that hopes to succeed.
In this respect, Occupy Wall Street is already succeeding.
The group of protesters on the streets of New York continues to grow, and now war veterans are joining in to show their support. The brutal showdown on Brooklyn Bridge, where over 700 people were arrested, spawned another protest near City Hall.
Protesters are planning another demonstration, this time directly outside of City Hall, RT's Marina Portnaya reported.
The purpose of this protest is to call on the city to drop all charges against nearly 800 activists who were arrested on Saturday evening. Those arrests took place when "Occupy Wall Street" protesters marched onto the Brooklyn Bridge, causing it to be shut down in one direction.
US soldiers and veterans are expected to join the protest near City Hall. They said they will be coming out to protect protesters from another brutal confrontation with the New York Police Department.
The group of protesters is constantly expanding, and with the servicemembers joining the protests, the marches will be getting much more attention.
The "Occupy Wall Street" movement is promising more marches against corporate greed, and the demonstrations are expected to continue throughout the week.
Meanwhile, during a news conference at United Nations headquarters on Monday, billionaire George Soros said that he sympathizes with protesters and completely understands the frustrations of small business owners.
"Actually, I can understand their sentiments, frankly, because there are a lot of people, for instance, running small businesses, who saw their credit cards being raised from 8 percent to 28 percent and they were relying on that credit to run their business, and a lot of them actually were put out of business," Soros said.
"At the same time, the decision not to inject capital into the banks but to effectively relieve them of their bad assets, and then allow them to earn their way out of a hole, gave the banks bumper profits and that allowed them to pay bumper bonuses," he added. "As I say, I can sympathize with their grievances."
"I think what we see right now is the embryo of a very broad fightback movement that may have the potential to grow into something larger," said activist and rapper Marcel Cartier to RT. "I hope it's the beginning of a revolution movement." Cartier added that he believes his fellow New Yorkers are definitely frustrated with the banks' mismanagement and said that those waging against war on Wall Street are much more powerful than the mainstream media makes them out to be.
"The greatest ammo to the ruling class," said Cartier, "is the fact that the masses of people don't yet realize that we are the driving force of this society."
"We can shut it down in a second,"
