LA Health Reform Rally Sticks it to Fox
The rally in front of FOX sprung from the fact that the majority of Americans actually do support meaningful Healthcare reform that includes a Public Option. This fact appears to this group to be largely ignored by major media, especially FOX. This motivated local groups to organize a rally at FOX TV Center in a strong show of support for Healthcare reform with a Public Option. The FOX news desk was contacted to cover the protest right outside their door, but replied they will probably be too busy reporting on the current fires.
Among signs and banners supporting health care reform, there were also two large banners at the rally that expressed long simmering anger towards FOX News consistently covering what many describe as misinformation skewed heavily to the right. They read: " FOX News is Bad for Our Health" and "Beck, O'Reilly and Hannity - Now there's a Death Panel"... |

Plus, here is one of Michelle.
Our plan is to go back next Tuesday, and keep going back. We just feel that it's time for us to get more involved.
Most of the people who passed honked in favor of the public option. Aside from being ignored by FOX, one employee flipped us off as he left the Fox parking lot...

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.
Why not question something for a change?
