I saw coverage on several of the networks and PBS. I swear, I start to fall into conspiracy theory thinking when I watch news these days. All the coverage was NYC, Atlanta, Seattle, etc… Blue cities that have been demonized by the press and magats for years, despite reality. I think it would have been way more helpful to see coverage of protests like where you are. I went to my local one, there were a few thousand people, but honestly, that was expected.
I live in Little Rock. Our Pride march was mixed with the No Kings march. Estimates were for 10-20k people between the two events, and I would say we got that many at least. The local conservative paper said “hundreds” gathered for the No King’s rally, the local Fox affiliate said “dozens” gathered for Pride. If you weren’t there, you would have no idea how big it was, a single video angle couldn’t begin to capture the size as they spread across multiple city blocks. Would be nice if they could at least try for honesty.

I live in small town Washington, population 2k, and we also had around 300 people show up in the rain to protest. In the rain!
