Need "positive" news stories and source for OWS
Went to a diversity training yesterday, and one of the speakers (head of human resources) made disparaging remarks about OWS (at a diversity training!). She said that was all she had been reading and seeing in the news. I saw many heads nod in agreement (these are teachers for God's sakes) and I said to her, "you have been watching Fox News."

This morning, she sent me an email saying she watches and reads Fox, MSNBC, USA Today, and the Dallas Morning News (Rag). I thanked her for the email, and I told her that I would send info to her.

I already have the soldier who was wounded in Oakland as a lead to send. Any suggestions or help from you guys is much appreciated.
