The Truth About The "Occupy" Media Blackout

Since the "Occupy Wall Street" movement began, many have alleged that there has been no mainstream media coverage. While this isn't entirely accurate, the concern isn't all-together unfounded.

Over the course of the demonstrations, coverage of the events has been widely varied from one mainstream source to the next.

As of today, the Associated Press has only mentioned the protests in 30 internal newswire articles, only 3 of which are accessible via ap.org. Compared with the 63 stories by Reuters, the bias between the newswire services is obvious. The AP simply isn't keeping up with Reuters in their OWS coverage.

CNN, early to the story already, leads the pack in # of mentions, followed by PBS, The Wall Street Journal, Fox News, and ABC News Respectively.
