On Saturday, October 17th, the national rally known as "Operation: Can You Hear Us Now" had its St.Louis media bias protest along Market Street on the steps of KSDK Channel 5, St.Louis' NBC affiliate. Dozens of people stood in the cold of upper 40's accompanied by a cold wind and mostly cloudy skies to make their voices heard.

Many flags and homemade & printed signs were among the winter caps and voices discussing and occasionally shouting in protest to the Media's lack of fair coverage of news events both national and local. The protesters commented on events & news stories involving President Obama, his Administration, members of Congress, and Washington's special interest groups.

A couple of people arrived wearing Obama masks as a few cars honked at the protesters. A female reporter and cameraman were also on the scene interviewing protesters. The crowd dispersed in about an hour. No arrests were made.
