[Aaus-list] 3/2/2014 protests - the local view - NYC

[Max Pyziur]

Watching coverage on the local NYC evening news, the oncoming snowstorm 
and Mayor DiBlasio's solidarity with gays wanting to march in the upcoming 
St. Patrick's Day Parade dominated the news portion.

However, there was 1-2 minutes on a roundup of events relating to 
Ukraine-related protests, including shots of the demonstration that 
started in Bryant Park (42nd & 6th Avenue) with a march to the Russian 
Consulate on East 91st, off 5th Avenue/Central Park. A few people were 
given 5-10 seconds of Q&A on-camera: notably Askold Lozynskyj and Mariya 
Soroka, the latter of the Razom Nas organization.

This was seen on channel 2 (CBS), and 5 (Fox); nothing on 4 (NBC).

Events in DC (protest in front of the Russian Embassy), Chicago, 
elsewhere?


Over to you, Chet.
