How many tens of thousands of people marching in protest does it take for CNN to acknowledge that it's happening? The Iranian people are outraged at the lack of coverage by CNN. The Iranian people need publicity about their plight and desire for a Free Iran in order to topple the regime. Iranians were shouting in English: "We Want Freedom".
If it isn't reported, who will know?

I have been hammering this same message for years. The MEDIA IS NOT AMERICA’S FRIENDS. The media honestly thinks they can control our country, our lives and our destinies with their thirty second sound bytes and constant conditioning of what they (the media) thinks matter.
Think about this, there are over 135 countries and over six billion people. Now think about the news we get fed to us on a daily basis.
oh, no they wouldn't. Obama is president now, everything is rosy and happy news......they would NEVER allow theOne to look bad. I grant you that if Bush were still president, they would be all over this blaming him for the unrest.
Thanks :)
You left out...
Two stoned hippies bitching about pollution and/or corporate greed
one drunk teen idol flashing her panties, or lack thereof.
one obamabot halfwit praising michelle for her attractive arms
three naked peta protestors
Is Fox covering it?
Yeah. They waited until they were given permission because it was an official press conference.
...see my tagline.....it has been in place for ages....i believe, without the msm we are doomed.
Yes. They covered it yesterday
Reporting this would not fit the story they are trying to tell. You must remember, Great Leader made a speech in the mideast recently and that speech has changed everything. Riots in Iran do not continue the story they are telling. Now I just realized something - I mentioned ‘Great Leader’ - excuse me while I take 15 minutes of silence to revere his great floating-above-the-world-as-a-god aura. Oooooooommmmmmm...
CNN will notice and report on the following:
One Republican trashing another Republican
One drunk teen idol flashing her panties, or lack thereof.
One obamabot praising michelle for her attractive arms
Two stoned hippies bitching about pollution and/or corporate greed
Five Gay Men Protesting anything
Three naked peta protestors
Six Members of NOW complaining about any conservative
Eight Blacks angry with cops
Thirty Union Members picketing a company
Here's the groups that "don't make the CNN cut":
1,000 democrats criticizing one corrupt democrat
400,000 tea party protesters
A million Iranians bravely standing up to their oppressors.
No. I like Fox News but their F&F doofuses are talking about foam rubber butt improvers and talking about 30 seconds per hour about news, iran included. It's disgusting and actually embarassing if you think of Fox as an actual news station covering what's actually happening in the world.
They may have been beaten into it but at least CNN is covering it and had a-jobs speech where he rationalized jailing his competitor.
FNC just showed a “victory rally” in support of nut job. They spent 5 seconds on it and moved on.
For CNN not to cover destroys what little credibility they had but it didn't stop the news from getting out, thanks to cyberspace! Even though the Mullahs cut off twitter, they thought, some Iranians were able to get through, plus some used the internet. Power was cut off in Tehran for awhile but restored and I think cell phone use has been turned back on. More protests scheduled for tonight(when ever that is in Iran, having trouble with the time difference:))
One of the candidates, Koutabi, does that sound right?, is declaring the election void, not that he has anything to say about it but it is interesting he would stand up and do it.
Fox was on it all day yesterday - when it was happening.
FOX is falling down on this story too. Shame on the MSM...

More than embarrassing. I watched an hour or so of Fox & Friends yesterday. I hadn’t seen it in a couple of years because the morons on it were so offensively shallow and stupid I couldn’t stand it. Guess what? They fired them and got a NEW set of morons even MORE shallow and stupid.
CNN is waiting for the daily fax from the DNC to come in to tell it what to do.
