For anyone not twittering or actively Facebook-ing who are trying to follow the national Occupy Wall Street movement Greg Mitchell has been live blogging and linking to a wide variety of sources daily since October 1. Mitchell who writes the MediaFix blog for the Nation.com updates regularly. He was all over last week’s Oakland police crackdown and their injuring of protestor, Iraq War veteran Scott Olsen.
Apparently Mitchell’s electricity is off this morning, but back soon.
Here are a couple recent bits
-Rainy and snow coming in NYC but still big turnout right now at Zuccotti, reports say…. NY cops all for rule of law and swinging batons when people get off sidewalks. Now read about many implicated in ticket-fixing scandal — and their cursing prosecutors yesterday.
-….Weather forecast for Northeast getting worse by the hour. Will be a real Valley Forge movement for occupations here.
It’s nice to have a source to follow as events unfold.
I’m one of those who remain disengaged from Facebook and Twitter.
