Right, this is a magical media production. We’re getting a stage play with zero backstory.
I’d like to see someone like Breitbart send a reporter down there to snoop around. He could ask a person in the caravan stuff like:
— are you mostly walking or mostly riding a bus?
— what is a typical day like for you?
— who contacted you about joining the caravan?
— how much preparation was there prior to leaving?
— what organization is coordinating this?
— who gives the participants the daily agenda?
— are you being paid?
— when are you going to arrive at the USA?
— what’s the plan once you get there?
— have you been given any instructions on how to speak with reporters?
It would be interesting to see the staging areas prior to the arrival of the caravan. What kind of preparations are going on and who’s doing it? Is it gringo NGO types or locals? A reporter could look for manager/coordinator/staff types and see what they have to say. Also talk to people in support roles like bus drivers and food vendors. What do they know?
Shouldn’t be too hard to figure out the back story/bigger picture I wouldn’t think. It’s just strange how this huge thing is kind of hiding in plain sight. Then again maybe there’s some good independent reporting going on that I’m not aware of.
Even details like the food. Are they getting uniform daily meal packets distributed from the back of supply trucks? Or are they relying on local food vendors somehow? This would be an interesting indicator of level of organization and preplanning.
Do the water bottles the caravaners are carrying all look the same, as though they were purchased in a huge bulk order? Who are the suppliers?
And how is the trash being handled? I would think 5,000 people would typically leave a wake of trash behind them unless it were carefully managed. How is this being worked?
