What the MSM Failed to Report: Anti-Palin Rally Biggest in Alaska History!

I bet this is something that you didn't hear about from our mainstream media.  This past Saturday in midtown Anchorage, an estimated crowd of 1,500 gathered in the streets to express their disapproval of both Gov. Palin, her policies and her record (Source).  The protest took place approximately two hours after Gov. Palin spoke at Anchorage's new convention center before heading back to the campaign trail.  Here are a few things that some of the protestors had to say:

"Sarah Palin frightens the hell out of me. I don't want her anywhere near the White House," said Marybeth Holleman of Anchorage. Source

"I think America does not understand how absolutely extreme her positions are — even to the right of George Bush and John McCain," Norton said. "She is frightening." Source

Anne Applegate-Scott, a 44-year-old attorney and stay-at-home mom, held a sign that said, "I don't vote for liars." Applegate-Scott said she actually voted for Palin for governor but won't vote for the McCain-Palin ticket. Palin, she thinks, has become a "product" of McCain handlers and won't let her talk to the media.  Source  The Sauda Voice could not agree with you more Ms. Applegate-Scott.

"She lied about her position on earmarks and building the bridge," Applegate-Scott said referring to the infamous Bridge to Nowhere. "She talks about her being a feminist but it is convenient feminism, it doesn't cost her anything."  Source

Susan Soule, 65, a part-time health consultant, said she is old enough to remember when abortion wasn't legal and what women went through who wanted to terminate their pregnancies. "I know the terror of unwanted pregnancy and back-room abortions. I know what that did to women," said Soule.  Source

You would think that the MSM would be interested in covering such a protest, especially since it took place in Gov. Palin's home state.  What better place to gauge just how much she is appreciated and respected by the community she serves?  Oh wait!  The MSM is run by big corporations!  I guess that explains the lack of coverage!  The McCain-Palin ticket protects their monetary and monopoly interests whereas the Obama-Biden one jeopardizes it!
