      \r\nIn his column, \"Media Scrutiny Of The White Bloc,\" Normon Solomon takes note of two top New York Times columnists representing the liberal side of the White Bloc. Both accused anti-FTAA protesters of being enemies of the poor. \r\n\r\n <\/p>
      \r\n\"Paul Krugman ended his column by writing that the protesters 'are doing their best to make the poor even poorer,'\" Solomon noted, before citing Thomas Friedman's parting salvo that \"these 'protesters' should be called by their real name: The Coalition to Keep\r\nPoor People Poor.\"\r\n <\/p>\r\n \r\n <\/td>\r\n <\/tr>\r\n\r\n
