"The mainstream media has not reported this story other than a New York Post article that focused on the WEF protests in New York and was obviously slanted..."

This was covered by a few mainstream sources. Not many, but more than just the New York Post. I don't have the urls but they were posted on the main IMC site a week or so ago.

but i haven't seen it on the site, so ill post it because the ny post has now archived it and you can only access the article if you wanna pay money...

WEF 'OLYMPIC TERRORIST' JAILED

New York Post; New York; Feb 8, 2002; Devlin Barrett;

An 18-year-old "terrorist" who allegedly vowed to "burn" the Olympics - before he was busted in last week's World Economic Forum protests - must stay behind bars until he is shipped back home to California, a judge here ruled yesterday.

"Yeah, mother- - - - er, I'm a terrorist to the United States government," Sherman Austin wrote on a Web site that also gave instructions on how to build bombs, according to prosecutor Victor Hou.

The teen appeared before Manhattan federal Magistrate Henry Pitman and asked to be released so he could travel to California on his own to face trial on charges of distributing information about weapons of mass destruction.

But Austin's alleged vow to take "violent action to stop the 2002 Olympics" and "burn" the event posed another serious threat, Hou said.

everyone should know it by now.. 200 years of the same, continues bullshit from this right-wing, mainstream piece of shit that calls it's self "newsworthy". Those comments were never said by sherman, they were said by an imposter on the site who frequently impersonated other anarchists/leftists, making sexist and racist comments. Raisethefist.com has repeatedly condemned international terrorism, but did the NY POST focus on that? Noooooo.. They only focus on the lies spewed by the crooked FBI.
