In which case, perhaps the media should stop covering those protests. I've seen far bigger protests at City Hall that struggled to get any press coverage.

Stop coverage? It’s trump related- so it will be CNN headlines for at least the next 2 weeks. Nothing else important going on in the world except trump protest.

It's funny that there are multiple Trump related posts on r/nyc and yet redditors point to CNN claiming moral high ground.

Irony can be pretty ironic

The people dictate what the media covers. After all, even your interest brought you to this thread.

As a former member of the media—the people don’t dictate shit.

Reddit forces you to read and participate in comment threads that you aren’t interested in?

Yeah but the other protests go against the corporate overlords so of course no coverage
