“Fox News Lies”: Geraldo booted off the Occupy Wall Street island
Not a banner day for Geraldo Rivera: In a crowd with fresh memories of Jesse LaGreca’s epic takedown of Griff Jenkins, Geraldo’s not-so-warm welcome is a tad heartwarming. Now, granted, his coverage of the protests — complete with Tavis Smiley and Cornel West talking from a studio — was pretty balanced, and not in that “Fair and Balanced” way, either. But his network affiliation led to some chants over his news broadcast — not fun — and eventually led to this rough exit, captured by Russia Today. source

This is a fun video, and nicely representative of how society has changed underneath the old white money men who control most of this country.
However, look for efforts to come in the next year or two to impose an almost Chinese style control over the internet. They aren’t stupid old white money men, and they have a shit load of power.
Look for it. They will try to impose internet information flow control as quietly as possible.

Rolling Stone contributing editor Matt Taibbi appeared on Current TV’s Countdown with Keith Olbermann to discuss the “Occupy Wall Street” protests. “The movement is growing organically,” Taibbi says, “because people know there’s something to protest now.” He adds that Occupy Wall Street could spur reformers and legislators to act because “the public won’t take it anymore.”
