I found this last sentence from a related article on Foxnews.com to be interesting:

The amount of protesters who actually still work at these locations depended upon who you asked. In some cases, protest organizers said there were dozens of associates, but store managers put the number at zero.

I wonder if there were any associates from these locations who worked there yesterday but not today.

“The amount of protesters who...”

Fox? Where did this person learn grammar? Makes me wonder when journalists can’t even write correctly. Should be “number”; “amount” is for uncountable nouns.
