National Day of Out(r)age! protest
at Verizon World Headquarters, 140 West Street at Vesey Street, Manhattan
Organized by the saveaccess.org coalition with Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting (FAIR), the NYC Grassroots Media Coalition, Paper Tiger Television and more!
Join thousands of people in cities across the country to protest AT&T, Bell South, Qwest and Verizon. These companies are spending $1 million a week to buy votes in Congress for their deregulatory legislation COPE HR.5252 and S.2686. Local cities have expressed their opposition to this legislation—now it’s time for the public to stop this phone company backed legislation—and demand accountability to local communities and the public interest.
