I am really looking forward to seeing his show. I don't know if you ever watched RT's coverage of OWS, but they were there from the beginning and their coverage was fantastic. They've had Jesse LaGreca on many times. Lots of good video of him on their site.

I am so glad also that OWS is working on having their own media. I know they started their own newspaper 'Occupy Wall Street Journal' which I have tried to get but have never been able to order it online. Then recently I read that Occupy Chicago were starting a similar newspaper.

RT did a great interview with the people behind the scenes of Occupy Wall Street Journal. If I find the video I will post it here.

They know they cannot control their message on the MSM, so they are building their own media. After so long trying to get fair coverage on the MSM, I think it's better to start building a new media and leave the old media to do its thing for Corporate America.
