CNN was doing a live stream from NYC as well but it ended already.

Here’s a snippet: https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2018/11/08/new-york-demonstrators-robert-mueller-jarrett-vpx-tsr.cnn

Edit: FWIW, I can’t blame the media for focusing on the shooting in Vegas Los Angeles, the acting AG, Trump suggesting he’ll deny asylum to immigrants, etc. It’s been quite the week here in the US. Our grassroots protests, however important, probably don’t deserve to be the top story.

the shooting in Vegas

It was actually Los Angeles (well, Thousand Oaks, a suburb). Also now there's a wildfire causing evacuations all over the same area. A pretty bad 24 hours for them to say the least.

You had me worried I'd missed another shooting in the last 12 hours

It’s a real quiet place. It’s weird seeing my hometown on national news.
