The protest initiated by Code Pink Women for Peace did receive some local corporate media coverage. KTLA TV and KFWB radio did interview some of the protesters. (It is unknown if they will broadcast the event or if these corporate media outlets can be relied upon to correctly represent the demonstrator’s message.)
This Indymedia reporter did have the chance to speak with No Bail Out activist, Peter Thottam. Peter is a former employee of Goldman Sacks and is now a sharp critic of the Wall Street investment banking industry and its relation with the policy makers in the government. The interview is uploaded in full and with no edits. Peter and some of his fellow No Bail Out activists have started a web site, http://madashellnetwork.org/ to help get the word out on the threat that the Wall Street bail out poses to the real economy: Main Street. When asked if the current economic situation was an indictment of capitalism in general Peter responded: Yes.
