Well, the press is NOT ignoring No Kings


Judging from what I'm seeing.

Said "tens of thousands" in Minneapolis.

All I have seen is peaceful.

It can be done.

I am very proud of all of them

Soros must be losing $$$$ paying all the protesters off. AND all the old people headlining the MN rally, Fonda, Springsteen, Joan Baez, and Bernie Sanders......and ya know the usual blah, blah, blah.

The photos are numerous and show the huge attendance.

If you scroll to the bottom, you will see how many reporters they had assigned to this very lengthy story.

Thanks for the link, spooky3!

local news stations here in Metro Detroit. Besides the No King rallies they report on the rise in groceries and gas prices too. It's a daily thing. Some folks in our state have RW local news, but so far we are safe.

like you i have appreciated the local news coverage. they cover everything in a simple matter of fact fashion. here are the prices, they are up, here is a person being hurt by this. contrast with so many of the national outlets, many of which are owned by oligarchs, that might report on prices going up but always do so with a quote from the president that "prices are going down!!!!!!"
