MSNBC is actually covering the One Nation march.
Ironically, there will likely be many more marchers than MSNBC has viewers on a Saturday morning.

5. If you have DirecTV or Dish
you can catch it live on Free Speech TV, with Thom Hartmann and Laura Flanders.

4. I wonder if this march will get wall-to-wall coverage on every
network like Glenn Beck's rally for wingnuts?? :sarcasm:

11. Fox will show footage from a teabagger rally...
So they can "prove" low turnout.

8. Well, Ed is a primary speaker, so I would expect them to cover it.
And I bet they will get a spike in viewers today.

9. CNN has been covering it sporadically
Just finished an interview with NAACP president in which the CNN anchor kept saying the NAACP and Tea Party need to get together. :eyes:

At least they're covering it. I haven't seen it covered in any depth elsewhere yet. I'm surprised no Pacifica stations are covering it (especially WPFW in DC).

15. I think they're still marching, so the crowd hasn't arrived
We won't know until closer to when the rally starts at 12 how large the turnout actually is.

13. Ed Schultz Has Been Promoting It Like Crazy
I sure hope people are still arriving...I'd like to see a crowd about half way up the tidal basin (about the amount Dreck drew).

I'm getting the feeling some are sitting this one out and will do the Stewart/Colbert rally...and I'll bet a bright shiny dime we see crowds that day (weather permitting) all the way back toward the Washington Monument. That's triple digit territory.
