The Occupy Wall Street interview Fox News doesn't want you to see
Greta Van Susteren, that lovely beacon of 'fair' and 'balanced', has joined her fellow talking heads at the network in cherry picking and editing videos of the protesters on Wall Street with the clear intention of making the protesters look as bad as Fox News can make them.
Funny, when an especially lucid, timely interview takes place that challenges Fox News to provide a more even representation of the movement, it falls on the cutting room floor.
Watch the video - it's the only place you'll be able to see it - on the internet. Between Fox News and the 'liberal' New York Times, you won't be hearing from the most erudite of the protesters. In fact, you won't be seeing much of anything about the protests, especially if it isn't negative. That is, until somebody is killed.

i happened to see a fox news reporter there on the first monday of the occupation, sept 19. he was also playing the punching bag role while interviewing the well spoken and "awake" interviewee. then he asked the same question: "how much of what is going wrong is obama's fault?"
im of the opinion that they are looking to use this people's uprising to make obama out to be the cause of the trouble. what he wasnt expecting was for the interviewee and the surrounding crowd to break out into laughter, laughing mostly because we were all aware of the fact that it has nothing to do with blue vs red, that the whole system needed to shift.
something tells me that video is somewhere right next to this one on the cutting room floor.
The MAN is scared.
