Well, as expected, the local news in Philadelphia gave the candlelight vigil on Rittenhouse Square (and others throught the area) the first and more extensive coverage. There were maybe a few hundred there.

We did get good coverage on the local WB 17, local Fox, and Action News ABC channel 6, and NBC 10.

Again, we got good coverage, but only after extensive coverage of the peace vigils.

This is what upsets us the most.. they do EXTENSIVE coverage of the anti-war rallies (even when there are only a couple).. and then when there are HUGE rallies like this,.. they do the obligatory nod.

Americans are catching on to the media's bias. Every person there has told someone else about the huge turnout and the lack of media coverage nationwide regarding it. Word of mouth is a powerful weapon!

I even question Fox's "FAIR and BALANCED reporting".. otherwise why aren't they showing the PRO America rallies like this one?

Thanks for the ping regarding the coverage.. and a good night bump!!
