From News Busters Gosh, those were the good old days. Or so Meghan Barr at the Associated Press apparently believes. As what’s left of the Occupy Wall Street mobs from last year staged a pathetic anniversary protest in New York on Monday, Barr, in one of the most embarrassing reports I’ve seen emanate from the [...]

Forbes in Denial Over ‘Dark Knight’s Occupy Wall Street Slam
From Breitbart Most liberal film critics and journalists have taken a unique approach to the conservative themes coursing through “The Dark Knight Rises.” They’ve covered their ears and recited a nonsensical phrase over and again to drown out the facts. The latest scribe to ignore the obvious is Forbes.com writer Erik Kain. He contends “Rises” [...]
RT’s Thom Hartmann suggests occupy vandals are agents provocateurs (video)
From Breitbart Thom Hartmann is a left-wing radio host who also has a show on the Kremlin-controlled RT. RT (formerly Russia Today) has been a big supporter of the anti-capitalist Occupy movement since last year. They’ve run hundreds of stories featuring sympathetic voices like journalist Chris Hedges, musician Tom Morello, and cartoonist Ted Rall. Given [...]
NPR calls violent Occupy protests ‘restrained’
From Breitbart The comforting whisper voices of authority at NPR want to keep their liberal pledge based hermetically sealed from the reality of nationwide May Day riots and chaos caused by the Occupy movement yesterday. That’s the only conclusion to be drawn from Morning Edition’s scant coverage of what was supposed to be Occupy great [...]
National media ignored bombers’ occupy connections
From News Busters The leaders of the plot to bomb an Ohio highway bridge are members of the “Occupy” movement, but you won’t find that information in much of the mainstream media coverage of the story. The FBI arrested five people in a federal sting operation in which FBI agents provided inoperable explosives to suspects [...]
Media ignores Occupy threat, Obama encourages them
From Breitbart Tomorrow is May 1, or May Day — the perfect day (and not just because it’s warm) for Occupy to give their campaign to benefit Obama’s re-election by dividing this country along economic lines, one more go. It’s no accident that Obama laid out the welcome mat for these craven thugs today. But [...]
Is this new website the ‘Huffington Post’ for Occupy?
From The Blaze Operating within the framework that the Occupy movement needs to speak for itself and cannot rely on the mainstream media to provide activists with a balanced portrayal, one New York filmmaker has created a website that is now being dubbed “The Huffington Post” for the Occupy Wall Street movement. What is perhaps [...]
Why is Occupy left-off list of ‘hate groups’ that Includes the Tea Party? (video)
The liberal media is trumpeting a new report from the Southern Poverty Law Center which claims that right-wing ‘patriot’ hate groups are on the rise in the US. The report cites the Tea Party as one of the ‘hate groups’, but somehow fails to mention the Occupy Wall Street movement which, in contrast to the Tea [...]
Salon rewrites history of violence at Occupy Oakland
From Verum Serum Writer Rebecca Solnit has a piece up at Salon arguing that Occupy Oakland has been horribly misunderstood. They’re not violent, they’re the victims of violence. Her piece is titled The Truth About Violence at Occupy and the subhead is “In Oakland, the camp coincided with a significant drop in crime. But that [...]
Left-wing press gushes over fading occupiers
From News Busters As the tents were coming down at McPherson Square, the dead rats and mice being retrieved, the urine and feces and filthy bedding disposed of by District of Columbia employees dressed in hazardous-materials suits like their contemporaries at Fukushima, I thought of the left-wing press. You see, I read the left-wing press. [...]
Associated Press silent on Occupy’s embarrassing CPAC saga
From News Busters On Friday, the Daily Caller reported that Occupy movement protesters at CPAC were being paid $60 a day to be there. (Here I thought the left was really motivated these days. Guess not.) At the self-described Essential Global News Network known as the Associated Press, this fact and other inconvenient items about [...]
