While covering a May Day rally in Manhattan’s Union Square on Wednesday, NBC New York reporter Ida Siegal was cornered and asked if her network planned to show the communist imagery the protesters were displaying. Hilarity ensued when Siegal immediately became defensive, denying she had seen any communist imagery and asking of the “Hammer-and-Sickle” flags: “What do they represent?”
“You guys are with channel 4 news,” the videographer noted while addressing Siegal and her production team. “Are you guys going to show any of the people with Hammer and Sickle flags?”
“I haven’t seen any of those flags,” Siegal replied amid the din of the ongoing protests activity. “What do they represent?”
The National Review Online posted a selection of some of the communist imagery and iconography that was present at the Union Square protest marking International Workers Day – the secular holiday that celebrates international socialist solidarity. Here are some highlights:

What does it mean? It's your company's logo of course.
Yeah, nitwit, the guys 10 yards away with large font yellow lettering of TYRANNY RESPONSE TEAM on their t-shirts.
I believe she didn’t know. Having a sub 75 IQ is a prerequisite to getting into journalism school these days.
Either he has a correct view that the media will cover for him, or he’s beyond retarded. This guy is such a terrible senator, if he does run again, we should be able to mount a challenge. At least you might think that if you forget all the dead voters in Illinois.
And having a sub-60 IQ is a prerequisite for getting OUT.
I am thinking she really doesn’t know what the ‘hammer and sickle’ flag is or what it represents.
Many folks in the media these days seem to have been born last week. And what with our education system these days, who’s going to tell them what May day originally was?
We’re only three days from Stinko DeMayo also. That should be a hoot this year falling on a Sunday.
Agreed... no doubt.
She didn’t know what a hammer and sickle meant. As you say, the stupidest, most ignorant people are in “journalism” today. We’ve gotta get rid of the J schools and get back to pounding the beat for news.
For a liberal, history begins anew each and every day.
You should see it from the inside. It’s probably better that you don’t for the sale of your sanity. I spent over a decade in print and internet media. Its a lot worse than you imagine.
‘We’re only three days from Stinko DeMayo also. That should be a hoot this year falling on a Sunday.’
Just thought of that a little bit ago. You know what the big Sunday headlines will be now. Sunday morning shows, immigration bill, just get ready for it.
Well, it has been so unfair up until now don’t you know. :^)
She would be among the first in the media “purge...”
mayday is a communist celebration throughout the world, except in the USA where it is forbidden to say “communist.”
Every notice a Liberal will know every negative thing that has happened in the U. S., but will know nothing about positive parts of our history or why our form of governance was installed?
Actually it’s a dead heat with education majors.
Funny thing, now they march with U. S. flags too. Har.
About five to seven years ago all you saw was Mexican flags, and they were called on it.
Now they spit on our flag, but at least it is there to some extent.
Communist goals 1963. All you need to know about liberals in one document. Seriously.
