I've seen and read plenty on it. Apparently there really isn't that much going on. The ones who keep claiming that it isn't being reported are the protesters.

I was reading about a week ago and trying to find out how many were there. After going thru many articles to find that info, it was reported that there were about 200 total. That number has grown quite a bit and there are things happening in other cities as well. The 700 arrests include people simply being ticketed for minor infractions. meh. The problem seems to be that they are not well organized, nor unified in what they want. There are people claiming all sorts of things from Bush/Cheney prosecutions to 4 day work weeks.
