Since I don't think many people will be watching this event on C-SPAN, it will be more important to see how this is reported on local (evening) news casts and in print media.
I agree. I couldn't actually watch the C-SPAN coverage and be here on the computer at the same time (different rooms), but from what I did see... often there were shots panning the anti-war crowd, showing indifferent looking protestors yawning, milling around, looking bored, etc. Hopefully a few of those C-SPAN camera people are on OUR side!
