    I just saw CNN’s May Day coverage. Some program called “OutFront”.

    The story went something like this:

    “OWS is concerned about the economy and poor people. But we’ve already spent over 3 trillion dollars ( on TARP and, QE1 & 2, etc. their numbers actually showed). But can we do more? NO. Enough is enough, say top yadayadas.”

    Nice little bit of disinfo/misinfo there. I’ll try and find the video later.

    But…there are barricades on the west side of zucotti, and the mass arrest bus is parked opposite it. UStream Tim (?) is guessing 20 minutes till eviction, and says more police are arriving.

    Members of Occupy Faith and Veterans police attempting to block arrests, which are happening now. #M1GS

    I’m surprised they don’t pair this technology with flashbangs, like illegal fishing techniques.
