Tune in later today as anti-cop protesters organized by the group “Occu-Evolve” in New York City are planning a 2:00 p.m. EST march against Fox News and the New York Post:
NYC Tomorrow
Shut Down @FoxNews & The @NYPost
2PM NY Post/Fox News HQ.#NewYearSameFight #BlackLivesMatter http://t.co/uk9WChRpEQ— #OccupyWallStreet & #CLOSErikers with #NoNewJails (@OccupyWallStNYC) January 1, 2015
Here’s the reported Facebook page for the event with an excerpt of what today’s protest is all about:
As many already know The NY POST is a newspaper that is owned and controlled by the Right Winger Rupert Murdoch, who in essence is a corporate racist, that continually supports and disseminates racist, classist, sexist and all forms of pro 1% misinformation through his NY POST newspaper as well as FOX television.
This rag has also continually posted lies and misinformation about the Black Lives Matter movement, protests and uprising. We say NO REST FOR THE WICKED and beyond this action a boycott of the NY POST and FOX NEWS remains in existence as long as the lies continue from its newspaper, news programming and other media services.
This Die-In Shutdown and Boycott is but the first part of a larger upcoming campaign for justice, and one way to make change is to begin hitting the 1% in their pockets as well as enlighten, expand and maximize participation in the movement as well as a action to expose the racist lies and bias of mass media starting with but NOT limited to the NY POST!
We also plan to do outreach to the 99% to explain the campaign and boycott and the role that ‘mainstream’ often dilutes the truth (when its not outright lying or mis-characterizing it).

OK then.
However, blogger Johnny Dollar tweets out a reminder of the voices this group wants to “shut down”:
