FOX is afraid

What's wrong with that? There are lots of things to talk about this weekend. :shrug:

Then why are they talking about yesterdays speech pretty much non.stop?

March is news now. Speech was yesterday.
 
Those are some pretty large turnouts in DC, Boston, Chicago, etc. Then again, I have a sneaking suspicion that all those folks are preaching to the choir in their events. Those places were all HUGELY anti-Trump to begin with so it's not like this is showing some new political awakening.

FYI - I did get a kick out of CNN cutting to Elizabeth Warren just as Ashley Judd started talking about Hitler.

You just said yourself that Fox WAS showing the march. LOL!

No. They gave an almost three second blurb then moved back to yesterdays speech.
 
The caption I saw said "massive women's march." I couldn't help thinking, why are massive women marching?

Not showing the MASSIVE protests going on.

Nothing.

Just replaying yesterday.

Cowards.

Where's the problem? Watch CNN. And BBC was just saying hot those magenta heads are preparing to be the Tea Party of the left. I have watched a few of their speakers. They are really a rather sad bunch and dangerous for the country, putting democracy in question as they are projecting to the world. But it's legitimate and mostly legal.

I predict that the liberal focus on crowd size from yesterday and today will disappear approximately 30 minutes before the upcoming March For Life begins.

I'm sympathetic to their cause, but I'm just left wondering if this will be yet another empty gesture. Doing protest walks is the 3rd least you could do, behind vicariously joining them via social media, and literally not doing anything.

The left loves protests. It tends to hate doing anything sustainable thereafter: the gritty work of political advocacy, lobbying, policy advisement, and so on.

I saw Warren but not Judd. Oh oh oh... here we go!!
 
Look --- they're talking about it again! Thread fail.
 
Actors are speaking... it must be important.

2 minutes 7 seconds.

Not bad but certainly not a good clip. White washed.

So CNN did not allow Trump/Hitler references to be aired on their network. Kind of refutes all the CNN bias that has been littering these threads. I have been very outspoken about FOX character attacks for 8+ years. And here, we have an instance where CNN doesn't let the character attack air.

I agree that the protests are a waste of time and energy. The participants would be better served to use all that energy to discredit the Lying, Deceiving, 100% Partisan, FOX News network. The best place to start - College Campuses, where responsible Journalism majors can accomplish a lot more, by voicing their opinions there. That action would then take hold, by convincing other students of the lies and deception. These students would then convince their parents and grandparents. They will then convince their friends and relatives. Anyone with half a brain will see FOX for what it is - an anger-inciting, propagation machine.

This is worthwhile directed energy, not protesting an inevitable inauguration.

Cutting and pasting your previous comment is pathetic.

Afraid of what exactly? The women make good story and will carry on I suspect. It should keep reporters with something to do.

Not sure... Giving anti-Trump stories afair share?

It will depend on how the protest runs. It can be quite often rather a turnoff, when there is violence like yesterday. It can be impressive, if it is continuous and peaceful. We will have to see.
