Stephen Colbert on Occupy Cal

[ahorbinski]

I've never been so ashamed to be associated with Cal as on Wednesday night, when the UCPD beat UC Berkeley's students and arrested 40 members of its campus community for expressing their views in accordance with their constitutional rights and long-standing campus tradition.

I found it telling that the mainstream media totally failed to cover Occupy Cal (40 arrests) and focused entirely on the Penn State riots (zero arrests).

Coverage of riots sells more soap than coverage of self-disciplined, consensus-based, peaceful democratic actions?
