Peace Center protesters at Rove visit


Former Presidential Advisor Karl Rove Speaks at Canisius College (with peace center protestors) Posted on peace center Facebook page, September 17: "So we had a little demo today - greeting Karl Rove on his trip to Canisius College to speak. Turned out good, and VIkki got interviewed by about 4 TV cameras. We'll have to see if they run any of it."

Here's the link to the Buffalo News article, with a quote from Vikki in it. http://www.buffalonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/ article?AID=%2F20120918%2FCITYANDREGION%2F120919097%2F1002

Valerie Niederhoffer comments: This article and the news spot on WBFO this morning both let Rove frame the debate. They both used different good quotes by Vicki on Rove's comment about OWS and the correct take on the income gap in America. Wish they had also had the guts to have an in depth discussion about Rove's participation in the Bush Administration's war crimes and treacheries.

Here's a clip -from CH 7, with some protest video + a sound bite from Vikki. http://www.wkbw.com/home/Karl-Rove-Speaks-at-Canisius-College-170128276.html
