HISTORIC DEMONSTRATION IN NEW YORK: March 22,
2003
The demonstration in New York was probably
the biggest in its history.
The
CNN
felt the danger of losing its credibility
if it downplayed the huge
anti-war,
anti-Bush
march. So at 1 pm (EST) CNN
announced that there were
100,000 people in the march.
A lot of people must have protested at that
CNN lie, so at 5 pm CNN
announced that there were 200,000 people in the
march and stuck to that
figure.
New Trend's sources say that there were
approximately 500,000 people in
the march which stretched out for more than 4
miles WHEN NOT MOVING.
People were vehement in their condemnation
of the war and of Bush. ONE
WOMAN SHOUTED: THIS IS NOT A WAR: IT'S A
MASSACRE
which was a widespread
sentiment.
Ramsey Clark's call to
IMPEACH BUSH
was
extremely popular.
At one point, a section of the crowd
scuffled with the police. At
another point, a large police force swung into
action when it was rumored
that 10,000 people had broken off to try and
block the Holland tunnel.
