Lobbyists hatched plan to undermine Occupy movement

http://openchannel.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/11/19/8884405-lobbying-firms-memo-spells-out-plan-to-undermine-occupy-wall-street

“In memo obtained by MSNBC-TV, authors propose financial hit job on protesters and the politicians who sympathize with them.”

“CLGC’s memo proposes that the ABA pay CLGC $850,000 to conduct “opposition research” on Occupy Wall Street in order to construct “negative narratives” about the protests and allied politicians.”

They could hire TB for that.  The blogs he follows are rife with “negative narratives” on the Occupiers.

It’s an idea they are trying to fight.   And sadly, the effort is in the interest of the 1%, but they can’t realize that.
