Occupy' Movement Threat Level Elevated to 'High' for November 5th Weekend
This is a propaganda hit piece I just came across which is of course put out by Murdoch's group. These people are just dying to get an incident started somewhere.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 4, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- The ListenLogic Social Listening Intelligence Center (SLIC) today elevated the 'Occupy' threat advisory level for large U.S. corporations to "High" for the upcoming November 5th weekend. Ongoing ListenLogic analysis of several million online posts has identified a significant increase in support for key Occupy events during the November 5th weekend, as well as increases in:

Threats made by protesters, with a 25% increase during the past week alone; of the threats, nearly 70% target police. The other most commonly targeted groups include: politicians (10%), corporate executives (8%), and reporters (3%).

Interest in online Occupy videos depicting acts of violence, destruction, and/or arrest activity. Over 80% of Occupy-related videos viewed on YouTube for the 30-day period ending November 4th include such acts.

"The Occupy movement is now targeting a wider range of banks and corporations because of their high profile and/or geographic proximity to Occupy protests. November 5th has historically been an important date for anarchists worldwide because of its connection to Guy Fawkes and street bonfires. The addition of Bank Transfer Day, Operation Fox Hunt, Dance on the Banks, and several other activities has the potential to create a 'perfect storm' this weekend that could escalate into further hostility," explained Vincent Schiavone, ListenLogic co-founder & chairman. "As ListenLogic continues to monitor this situation with a real-time SLIC for its clients, we feel it is necessary to elevate the threat level so that the public and all of corporate America are aware of the alarming social activity we are witnessing."

1. The son of Sir Keith Murdoch still carries the water for City of London central banksters.

Edit. Interesting irony for a warmonger to promote (agent provocateur) violence as though Murdoch believes that violence is a BAD thing. Presumably only state sanctioned violence taking the form of war or cop skull cracking qualifies as a GOOD thing in the Faux world.
