Not quite on-topic, but I am a developer, so I have all the settings set up for the highest level of sensitivity to bugs.

The New York Post website is a MESS.

I can't even really get to it, with all the bugs they have in there.

I guess there was no way the Liberal News Media could take pictures to make it look like 300,000?

Some had cute little “revolutionary’ outfits on though.

They got to wear that Halloween mask a few weeks early.

I wonder if this is the beginning of the “riots” Bloomberg warns us against.

Guardian UK, reporting is exaggerated and pushing an agenda :

On Saturday 17 September, many of us watched in awe as 5,000 Americans descended on to the financial district of lower Manhattan, waved signs, unfurled banners, beat drums, chanted slogans and proceeded to walk towards the "financial Gomorrah" of the nation. They vowed to "occupy Wall Street" and to "bring justice to the bankers",

The call to occupy Wall Street resonates around the world - We need deeper changes to our financial system, or tent cities of people angry at corporate greed will keep appearing
