Of course. To be “loud enough to snag media coverage,” our rally would have had to repeat the mainstream media line. Rallies that dissent from that line are never “loud enough,” no matter what — we had tens of thousands at Ground Zero a few years ago and the media barely took notice. “Union Square […]
