The newscaster in the beginning introduction flubs a few syllables when he tries to say pesticides and flubs again just after that. I did have to wonder if he was coached to do that, because he does seem a little nervous. Pretty sad stuff considering this is coming from a highly-polished news anchor at CNN.
But despite attempts to swallow a few key words early in the piece, the story recovers nicely and gives an accurate account of what the protest was about. They insert a newspaper headline about the suicides in India, which is a very tragic and key factor in the discussion against Monsanto.
They interview this guy Moss who was kinda sorta the counterpoint, but who comes off seeming weak. And ridiculous - what's with the fake Groucho Marx eye brows?
In what looked like a potential media blackout, CNN comes around and does the right thing. It's a good day for The Cause. -S.C.-
