Four Million Want ‘No Kings’—Media Want No Coverage

Alaina Demopoulos, at The Guardian:

The scale of last weekend’s “No Kings” protests is now becoming clearer, with one estimate suggesting that Saturday was among the biggest ever single-day protests in US history.

You’d never know it from the so-called “mainstream” media’s dearth of coverage.

You’d think 4–6 million people protesting anything would be front-page news everywhere, and warrant wall-to-wall coverage. But no. It’s like they’re trying to avoid antagonizing Trump—either out of fear or allegiance. Regardless, the voices of this many people—1.2–1.8% of the U.S. population—will only grow louder and more insistent.
