NO spin at all. as Fox generally doesnt. I suspect they will simply not report it as it is a non-story about a very small useless bunch of old school communists and their young impressionable upper-middleclass brainwashed punk kids.

It's been well known that OWS has no political affiliation and protests both sides of the isle, however to the brainwashed right wingers, the right wing propaganda machine has spread lies and tried to paint OWS as radical left wing socialist/communist/marxist/anarchist Obama lovers.

I wonder how fox and the right wing propaganda machine is going to spin this one,..
They are Left wing socialist/communist/marxist/anarchists. They may not be Obama lovers but they are all the rest of the other stuff.

Most likely they will treat it just like they did certain speeches at the RNC. They will pretend it didn't happen.

"Fox will report that OWS is so far to the radical left, they think Obama is a hard right republican"
When can we expect your supporters to come in? Are they taking today off so they can see the whole convention on MSNBC?

How far away from the convention site are the protesters? I read a commentary from a delegate to the Republican convention who said they started having to show credentials 4 blocks away from the convention site.

What is the point of protesting if the delegates don't know you are there?

You can watch it at inauguration time. They put the protestors so far away, they are invisible.

Well the RNC got about 6 great vagina's and a few OWS whiners that I never saw till the convention was over.

What i will want to see is the empty seats..... Not Eastwood's empty seat, but ALL the empty seats at the DNC.

Everyone is being kept some distance away from main venues. You can go to the Charlotte forum and read what folks are posting there about the venues - and some photos are coming in from members, as well.
