>>NO ONE SHOWED UP TO THE ANTI-BEYONCE RALLY THAT WAS
PLANNED FOR THE NFL HEADQUARTERS IN NEW YORK CITY.
WE HAVE A
NUMBER IT TURNS OUT THAT THE ANTI-BEYONCE PROTESTERS DID NOT
SHOW UP, BUT THE COUNTER
PROTESTERS DID SHOW UP.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES.
>> THIS WAS HYPED UP BY SOME RIGHT-WINGERS.
DO WE HAVE A
PREDICTION PERHAPS BY WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IN THE RALLY?
>>
THERE IS A COUNTER PROTEST THAT WILL HAPPEN ON THE SAME DAY.
>> BUT THIS WILL BE MUCH LARGER.
PROBABLY ATTENDED BY SEVEN PEOPLE?
>> I WAS WRONG.
IT WAS ATTENDED BY ZERO PEOPLE.
>>THERE WERE MORE TWEETS AND PICTURES WHERE YOU CAN SEE HOW
THERE WAS REALLY NO ONE THERE.
>> THOSE ARE JUST THE COUNTER PROTESTERS.
>>THEY LOOK CONFUSED.
WHERE ARE THE ANTI-BEYONC…
PROTESTERS?
ALSO ONE PERSON WRITES ñ
>> THE REASON WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THIS IS THAT THE RIGHT
WING HUFFS AND PUFFS AND PRETENDS TO REPRESENT REAL
AMERICANS.
IT'S SUPER IRONIC BECAUSE IN REALITY THEY HAVE NO
SUPPORT AT ALL.
LET'S SHOW THIS PICTURE.
THIS WAS THE AREA IN
WHICH THE PROTEST WAS SUPPOSED
TO HAPPEN AND GUARDED BY COPS.
LITERALLY NO ONE.
YOU WANT TO SEE THE POWER OF THE RIGHT WING IN AMERICA, THAT
IS IT RIGHT THERE.
>>I WONDER IF PEOPLE DIDN'T SHOW UP BECAUSE OF ALL THE NEGATIVE
PRESS.
THEY DID GET A TON OF NEGATIVE ATTENTION, THERE WERE
COUNTER PROTESTERS, MAYBE THEY GOT SOMEONE INTIMIDATED AND
REALIZED YOU WANT TO SHOW OUR RACIST FACES ON THE CAMERA.
>>THE FACT THAT NO ONE SHOWED UP AFTER ALL THAT PRESS ATTENTION
IS EVEN MORE AMAZING.
IT SHOWS
YOU THAT THERE IS NO ONE HOME.
IT'S ABOUT A BUNCH OF LOUDMOUTHS
IN THEIR BASEMENT IN TENNESSEE.
THERE IS NO ONE IN NEW YORK THAT
THOUGHT IT WAS SO OFFENDING.
IT IS BS, IT'S THEIR PAPER TIGER.
I
HAVE COVERED THIS 1000 TIMES.
THEY DID A PROTEST AGAINST
DISNEY BECAUSE DISNEY DID NOT
HATE GAY PEOPLE.
IT DID NOT AFFECT DISNEY SALES OR REVENUE
AT ALL.
IT WAS LIKE THREE PEOPLE ANYWAY.
THIS WHOLE RIGHT-WING
OUTRAGE, IT'S ALL LIES.
I HAVE DONE STORIES WHERE THEY SEND IN
THOUSANDS OF LETTERS TO
CONGRESS.
BUT IT'S THE SAME LETTER.
IT'S FUNDED BY
CORPORATIONS, IT PRINTS OUT THE SAME LETTER, AND THEN THEY
SEND IT IN.
>> ALSO SOCIAL MEDIA HAS MADE IT REALLY EASY FOR PEOPLE TO BE
ACTIVISTS WHERE THEY ARE CONSTANTLY OUTRAGED.
IT'S A EASY
WAY FOR THEM TO VENT ABOUT
WHATEVER IT IS THAT IS PISSING THEM OFF.
WHEN IT COMES TO
ACTUAL ACTION, THEY DON'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING.
THAT TAKES TIME,
EFFORT, AND RESOURCES WHICH THEY
DON'T WANT TO DO.
I THINK THERE ARE A LOT OF THEM OUT THERE, BUT
SOCIAL MEDIA HAS CREATED THIS WAY FOR PEOPLE TO BE UNBEARABLE
WHINERS.
ANYTHING THAT MAKES THEM FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE, THEY ARE
OUTRAGED.
>> I'M NOT SAYING THERE ARE NO RIGHT-WINGERS IN THE COUNTRY AT
ALL.
OF COURSE THERE ARE.
THEIR NUMBERS ARE WAY OVER INFLATED.
PROGRESSIVE POSITIONS POLL SO
MUCH BETTER THAN RIGHT WING POSITIONS.
YES, THEIR
POLITICIANS GET ELECTED AFTER
DROWNING ELECTIONS IN MONEY.
EVEN AMONG THE RIGHT-WINGERS,
THERE IS NOT THAT MANY WHO ARE OUTRAGED BY THE THINGS THAT THEY
PRETEND TO BE OUTRAGED BY.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT RIGHT-WINGERS ACTUALLY DO?
THEY LISTEN TO BEYONCE.
