Occupy Wall Street Best of Show, Fran Lebowitz

December 29, 2011

Today it’s all Occupy Wall Street.  We’ve got interviews with Justin Wedes, of the Occupy Wall Street media team and  @OccupyWallStNYC Twitter account, from the very first show after Occupy Wall Street started and the Majority Report’s own man on the street Jeff Smith (@dontbeaputz).

Also, a people’s favorite selection,  Sam’s conversation with Fran Lebowitz from our 12 hour anniversary show and N17 Occupy Wall Street’s Global Day of Action.  Fantastic interview!

It’s our vacation week and with your input we’ve put together some special best of”  shows to wrap up 2011.  Use this post as today’s thread.

NOTE from Matt: I gave you all A LOT of great Majority Report Occupy Wall Street coverage (and there is still so much more that I had to leave out!). I hope you all enjoy it as much as we have enjoyed covering it. (And if you’re not already a member…I really hope today’s show inspires you to become one!)
