LGBT Rights - March & Rally in Silverlake
May 15, 2004
Close to 500 people held a march and rally this Saturday in the Silverlake district of Los Angeles. Marching from the intersection of Sunset Blvd and Edgecliffe to a rally on Sunset Junction at Santa Monica Blvd. The event was organized by a coalition of group including the LAMBDA Legal Defense and Education Fund, The California Freedom to Marry Coalition, The L.A. Coalition for Equal Marriage Rights, and ANSWER LA . The event was peaceful and there were no arrests.

Main Stream Cooks Numbers -- On their web site ABC local news reported the following:
“Gay Marriage Supporters Rally”
LOS ANGELES (AP) — About a hundred supporters of gay marriage rights rallied in Los Angeles last night. The action came just days before the state of Massachusetts is set to begin issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples on Monday.

This LA-IMC reporter saw no news vans or news crews from any local TV news station at the rally. Why KABC who were not even there stated that “about hundred” people came to the event is unknown. I know at least 500 people who will testify to the contrary. (Editorial Remark: perhaps this is yet another example of the major media outlets getting it wrong or deliberately ignoring and down playing the level of activism and protest going on in this city everyday.) There were however reporters from KPFK and LA-IMC there. Organizers said there are more events planned.
