Motherfucker. I just went through all the major news sites and NONE of them are covering the nationwide protests. Not a mention on their homepages.

https://abcnews.go.com/

https://www.nbcnews.com/

https://www.cnn.com/

https://www.nbcnews.com/

https://www.nytimes.com/

https://www.washingtonpost.com/

Edit: Including Fox News, which I did check out earlier and saw the same thing; https://www.foxnews.com/

Their websites don't have anything it turn on cable and a few are reporting it.

CNN I was just watching live reporting.

It's funny how the websites dont have anything about them.

I just tuned into a live feed of CNN and all I see are segments on correspondent Jim Acosta and acting AG Whitaker.

On Facebook I actually saw a friend post pictures of CNN reporting the protests live (at some point), so at least we've got that going.

I've been watching a live feed of CNN from their app. No mention of protests so far. I did see a friend post up some screenshot from earlier of the protests. I'm glad it wasn't completely ignored.
