THE MEDIA LIE ABOUT ANTI-WAR PROTESTORS Last week, the New York Times reported on the anti-war protest in Washington, D.C. in diametrically opposing ways. It's first account stated that the turn out for the rally opposing war with Iraq was "light" and that organizers were "disappointed." It estimated the crowd of protesters in the "hundreds." Then by mid-week, it printed a second account of the rally, this one buried deep in the paper, reporting that more than a 100,000 people had turned out. Estimates from the US Park Service and event organizers ranged as high as a quarter million, making it one of the largest peaceful anti-war demonstrations since the Gulf War One. In what amounted to an unofficial correction of its weekend story, the Times noted that organizers were now overwhelmed and amazed by the size of the turn out. evworld.com dEL
