I can see your point AlphaGamDiva. I think the gibberish of the very first post of this thread just has me too worked up.

I personally believe that in an effort to portray an American society that is totally "gung-ho" about the war effort the media is attempting to portray protestors as abrasive, beatnicks with nothing better to do than lie in the streets.

and i agree with you...to an extent. i think it's having the opposite effect, though. the media is kinda cracked out sometimes....showing so much of one thing, people never get to see the other. so, until the news can show a correct ratio of hostile protestors, to non-hostile protestors, to supporters, it will all be a clusterf*ck in people's minds. ya know? and God knows i love some fox news....but they're bad about not showing all sides, i think.....so msnbc to the rescue!
