OWS needs a Kent State moment, says Deutsch (video)

Apparently, OWS needs better branding according to Deutsch. "I don't want people to take this the wrong way, says Deutsch." It's difficult not to, Donny. And then he says that the Tea Party movement has an "adultness" to it. Moran. This is the clip, Donny Deutsche talking to MSNBC.

"The decision by Brookfield Office Properties Inc. to delay its planned cleaning of Zuchotti Park means that the protesters who have been living at the site for nearly a month will not be forced to depart and remove the tarps, beds and other items accumulated during the ongoing demonstration."

Salon.com and Bloomberg turn around

Salon.com has a Occupy Wall Street section. The latest article on the site talks about today's big news: Bloomberg wants the park cleaned out of tents and protesters won't be able to use sleep bags and sleep on the benches of Zuccotti Park. Next two cents: of course, if you've ever been to New York, you've seen thousands of homeless sleep on thousands on park benches throughout the city every night.

Michael Moore

Michael Moore has been a vocal supporter of OWS since the beginning, showing up at protests and giving the phenomenon publicity by talking about it to the media. His website has become a great source of information for all things OWS.

Democracy Now at OWS

Amy Goodman is one of the great journalists out there. Her team has been covering OWS since the very beginning. A new show is loaded onto the website every week day. I listen to the podcast of the show every night. Yesterday, Goodman mentions that both NYC mayor Bloomberg and the city of Washington D.C. have announced that the protesters can go on indefinitely. With Winter coming, I wonder how long the protest will last.
