the never comes issue adequately with you on this richard as well which is
occupying so that's kind of art
i want you to rely on that too i think it's a bit of a second fail for us right
well we did a general strike upon tuesday show we we did not
do any videos we knew in online showed setter
we don't walk by show on the young turks uh... undercurrent shipmate and you know
tens of thousand bull herb
protests across the country by in at you know hundred different cities literally
right
why didn't get much media coverage now that's not a price fault us the media's
fault we cover the hell out of it we sent jr anna lucas they all that great
footage in los angeles where we are
but i feel like occupy is not coalescing around a message
so all the spanish is this first
you know i i think that's the issue now and i think the struggle that's going
line is there's this
struggle between how much you get into policy how much depends on what role
politics
the initial message there is in the ninety nine percent and there's a
one-percent with brilliant even raise before like the message in the delivery
were both amazing because they were both
designed in a way to capture attention so i think the challenge now for the
occupy movement is how do you take that to the next level in a way that will
also
capture attention
and delivered in a way that will capture attention now here's what you have the
nursing 'cause either unique perspective on this which is that i work in
television
if you have a visual like that
every t_v_ station is going to convert this issue look like plan of the tapes
europe's match of the windows and so it's a i'm keeping to relocate all you
have a right and so uh... peaceful protest verses guys smashing windows
nine out of ten times about ten out of ten times t_v_
is gonna pick up against action window as
so then what what's the message that you sent that
you have tens of thousands of pounds of peaceful protesters dispersed throughout
the country
but the thing that gets on t_v_ that gets broadcast the three hundred million
people is a guy smashing the windows right so i know that you don't have the
full control over everybody yeah i know that day but just because of that as you
go forward
because that's how this game is played
so that's one of one point number two is
look i just think they need three spokespeople
and i know that they're into the whole world shangri la democracy and i love
you on obviously i'm in favor democracy
not in favor of direct remarks and so that's where we have a real difference
of opinion
okay we have a vote on resolution thirty two bc abha right now everybody let's
figure out what that is a must read and everybody thinks about
and everybody has a say in three hours of forty five minutes later is
no one understands it and no lee i would've represented democracy right and
i believe that ana organizational level two i'd been there and i'm outlook i was
a general assembly meetings in new york uh... over and over again in auckland
in los angeles right
you've got to have spokespeople that
pal in the message shall otherwise your efforts get this first scattered into
the wind
ideal media look at what you know you could disagree with me on things a
busier with me on this
binomial from st
and you're not gonna get your message and if you don't then you're not really
representing the ninety nine percent of us
who need that representation
you know the one thing i might modify about your idea cuz i like it in general
is
i worry when power gets to consolidated in just two or three people but you
might have a committee of
fifteen twenty spokespeople the rotator that address different issues
so that nobody become gay because we saw couple people try to become the face of
occupy in the north backlash
but if we have fifteen or twenty people were educator at on different aspects of
the problem or telegenic i'm sorry but we both know that's important who can
communicate who then come back and speak for the company okay the assembly's can
really ratified ordeal ratify them every six months whatever
have that then you start to have a certain very interesting communication
thread one last thing on that look t_v_ producers
are not complicated folks
when they need to do a story an occupier or there you've been thinking about
doing a story in occupied unique f all those t_v_ producers need a list here
are my eyes it could be three could be fifteen
and all that fifteen year probably gonna like two or three not like the rest
right
but they need a lesson from other so they didn't go to them and the more
well-known someone is
the more likely it is the summits are yeah i saw it you know
john jones on t_v_ and
he was good on msnbc solicita must c_n_n_
right it has that multiplier effect
you've got to get the message out p gotta be disciplined in how you get the
message out because to me
do you know there's a there's a family in orlando is a single mother and
pittsburgh there's all these people that you're representing that or in your
general assembly
and you got to speak out for them
your their voice so you gotta love that voice more effectively so and look and
i'm not saying the media is not at fault i think there was some great footage
that we got a great protest because we tried we go to los angeles away decreed
footage they could've done that in every city in on force live oftentimes they
did so i'm hoping we can work together to get uh... have better result because
you know mayday was supposed to be huge and as it turns out
i'm keepin it real it didn't have the as big an impact as i would've liked
