London Indymedia

Why the pisspoor coverage of the big London anti-war demo?

Will | 27.09.2003 23:24 | Anti-militarism | Indymedia | London | Oxford

Contrast the appalling feature column coverage of Saturday's big anti-war demo in London with the blow by blow, hourly, coverage of DSEi.

As of saturday night 12 pm there was NOT A WORD about the demo in the central headlines feature column. Just individual contributions in the Newswire.

Why?

Is this yet another bit of narrow sectarianism toward the Coalition by UK Indymedia? Perhaps because the one of the components of the Stop the War Coalition is the SWP?

If this is the reason, then shame on you all.

Time to rescue Indyemdia from small-minded, muddleheaded, left-liberals and posturing anarchist provocateurs who have done nothing but whine about the Stop the War Coalition, and the SWP's key role in building it, since the day it was founded.
