Journalism: Protesters React To Negative Backlash Following I-93 Sit-In
WBZ-TV's Ken MacLeod tracked down some protesters who shut down I-93 Thursday...
This is going to amaze you: the families of the protesters, approached by WBZ reporters, didn't want to talk with the press and wanted the reporters to leave. A few complained of 'harassment', though how being asked by a reporter to answer a few questions about their lil' darling compares to blocking traffic isn't clear to them. The leader, a young hippie with (apparently) malfunctioning deodorant, thought the protests were warranted by the "importance of their cause."
It's all fun and games playing heroic revolutionary taking down Teh Man using the media, except when YOU become the story...
