Big Journalism has learned that the Occupy Washington DC movement is working with well-known media members to craft its demands and messaging while these media members report on the movement. Someone has made the emails from the Occupy Wall Street email distro public and searchable. The names in the list are a veritable who’s who in media.
Journolist 2.0 includes well known names such as MSNBC’s Dylan Ratigan, Rolling Stone’s Matt Taibbi who both are actively participating; involvement from other listers such as Bill Moyers and Glenn Greenwald plus well-known radicals like Noam Chomsky, remains unclear. The list also includes a number of radical organizers, such as Kevin Zeese.
In these emails we see MSNBC’s Ratigan, hawking his book in the footnotes, instructing occupiers on how properly to present their demands and messages while simultaneously appearing on television reporting “objectively” on the story (when he’s not taking part in the protests himself as content.)

Other emails include Taibbi’s:

The full searchable Occupy DC list is available here. We’ve only begun to discover the full scope of MSM’s involvement and are still combing through the archives after the list was brought to our attention late last night. (If you find something interesting that we have missed, please leave us a note in the comments.)
We know that the original movement was kicked off by a Soros-funded group called Adbusters; that union groups and radicals routinely overthrow leadership unfriendly to an occupation of the occupation (check out how Occupy St. Louis was hijacked by ACORN off-shoot MORE); and now we know that media, including MSNBC itself, is apparently helping occupiers better influence the public by both writing their messages and giving them a platform.
So how long are we going to pretend that this is a “grassroots” uprising?
And how can the media continue to report on the occupy movement objectively when it’s part of it?
*Updated to reflect that the email distro is part of the OWS, not exclusive to one particular city.

Looks like a concerted effort to bring down the US.
Not surprising. Ratigan is a huckster, peddling his book to separate the rubes from their money (to fund his opulent lifestyle). Of course, prior to his lowly rated MSNBC gig, he was a Wall Street cheerleader at CNBC, where he lauded Tax Cheat Geithner and Obama as the geniuses who would save the world.
Ratigan is a fraudulent game show host who's interested only in sleeping with models and peddling his fraudulent wares.
LoLing @ the FAUX outrage from the folks that brought us the Glenn Beck, Sawah Palin, FAUXNews-fueled and Dick Armey sponsored Tea-Bag movement. Deal with it whiners.
Good work Big Jornalism! I look forward to seeing how the commie apparatchiks deal with this revelation.
ZOMG! @ 8:50 one of the guests shouts "that's BS" in the uncensored way. I think that was live on air too. CLASSIC!
This is seditious and treasonous. There is no other definition which I can think of to describe people who have turned on America and wish to destroy it. They should be treated as such. We ARE under attack.
You just believe whatever you want, from the sources you have made up your mind to believe, and you will not even consider looking at any sources offering opposing information. You really are pathetic. You are one of the bigots of the 21th Century, and you think you are a free thinker. You are not helping, loser.
Bring it bitch.
Great work Big J.
Expose these people. They really are struggling with their message ("demands"). Grass roots movements come together because folks like the message/beliefs they see in the movement. In this particular case, the so called uprising began first and now they need a message–that is not grass roots.
Boom! goes the nightstick. Great work, BigJ!
What you are seeing on the street , in the media, and within the Washington Beltway is the last gasp of the leftist movement….it is like watching the slums of New Orleans circling the great toilet bowl that was Katrina. It will get really loud with a lot of go nowhere circular motion as it heads toward the sewer of American History….it was kind of fun but we can no longer afford it and now it is time to pay the piper.

"And how can the media continue to report on the occupy movement objectively when it’s part of it?"
As long as we keep not holding news outlets accountable. Ed Schultz should have been fired for his editing of the Perry clip for the purpose of slandering a candidate, Christiane Amanpour should have been sanctioned for letting Pelosi tell the ABC audience that Tea Party activists deliberately spit on CBC members and were encouraged to do so by Eric Cantor and other GOP politicians, and Piers Morgan should have been sanctioned for allowing Sean Penn to tell CNN viewers that Tea Party activists are ignorant racists who all want to murder the president because he's black.
We need to get to where we are mad as hell and not willing to take the MSM lies anymore.
Good article, thank goodness these things are being exposed.
Oh, we'll deal with it alright. If you liked November 2010, you're gonna love November 2012.
But Fox should be admired and rewarded for allowing so many Tea Party candidates to be paid commentators, right?
Interesting that Piers Morgan challenged the hell out of Joe McGinniss for lying, because the liberal media clearly wanted to disassociate themselves from McGinnis and unanimously threw him to the wolves. But Morgan basically agreed with Penn's despicable and mentally unstable slander.
And CNN was just fine with a host not challenging a guest for saying the members of a grass roots activist group which is defined by its lack of violence and turmoil, want to lynch the president because he is black. With absolutley no eividence to back up this disgusting, bigoted charge.
This is journalism?
Name names, Skippy.
Which Tea Party candidates are paid Fox commentators?
How lovely. In 150 years the Left has gone from the superficially intelligent writings of Marx and Engels to comments like this.
No. You're the ones who spew anti-Semitic drivel and talk about assaulting people you don't know because they happen to be millionaires. YOU deal with it.
I like how Taibbi writes that they can't be accused of an MSM conspiracy merely for wondering what the protesters' demands are, while suggesting a litany of lefty demands the protesters could use, so that the non-conspiratorial MSM can have something to report on, so that the protesters don't look like a bunch of retards who have no idea why they're there.
I remember when you fools on the left were pissing and moaning about how Fox News "promoted" the Tea Party and moralizing about how wrong that was. Now when MSDNC get caught supporting OWS you guys now support what you were supposedly against. So the left wing logic goes like this. We only would justify a something we claimed was a wrong only if it suited are political agenda. It really shows how unprincipled you left wing morons are.
If these Occupy events could be orchestrated to coincide with "pass this bill now", who says they cannot be dragged into the time frame of "October supprise" and beyond into November 6 th 2012 proximity. It does not look right.
I wonder if he is related to Mike Taibbi. He was that brave journalist from CBS News who exposed the Tawana Brawley hoax – back in the days before the Internet.
You sad, sorry, rightwing fool.
Listen, as to not waste any more of my valuable time on such drivel as you people just typed, why don't you come again when you see or hear of msnbc rolling out an entire campaign in support of the #OccupyWallStreet movement. Hmmmmkaay!??
Remember, that's what The FOXNews did. LoLing @ so many RW MORANS in one place. The ignorance on this site just astounds me.
Notice how not one of them suggested soap……
I never have considered Ratigan part of the MSM, as the title indicates.
LOOK———-> The email on the list, identified as 0003.html from <grimwomyn>, at this link :http://owsmail.dc406.com/OWSMailList_0003.html, I recognize as a guest Sean Hannity interviewed on his radio show at least twice from OWS. I found a link with the audio but unfortunately don't have the software to open the interview. Following is the link related to Grim Womyn on the Sean Hannity Show wiht a hyperlink to the interview itself. http://www.talkradio1370am.com/Sean-Hannity/29852...
Do they have to do that in order to convince you? Do you not have a brain and eyes to put two and two together? Or are you just a left wing talking point machine?
"Listen, as to not waste any more of my valuable time on such drivel "
Why are you here to waste time then?
"The ignorance on this site just astounds me."
Then leave dumbass since you supposedly know everything.
Journolist never really left, it is just more covert!
Grimwomyn's name is Priscilla, with a cell phone number, as listed in 0024.html email.
Where was that sentiment when The Glenn Beck was a hootin and a hollering, ranting and raving like some crazed maniac every day on The FOXNews in FULL ON support for the Tea-Bag movement? How about when Hannity and Palin and other prominent FOXers went in support to the rallies giving speeches?
And you have the nerve to talk about "think for yourself!?!? Mannn…get a MFing GRIP!! You and your ilk are brainwashed. You people view and listen to The FOXNews and worship it as gospel. You cling to that propagandizing network WORSE than those rural Virginians cling to their religion and their guns. Put down the crack pipe.
As for me leaving, I'm sure you would love that won't you.
No. I think I'll stay, thank you very much.
I'm here to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable. And you will sit and take it and you will like it.
WAKE UP!!
your time so precious? why then are you trolling this stream?
doubtful that you have a job or could contribute in any meaningful way to organized society.
pigs' head on a stick for you (that's literary allusion, you might not get it…).
piss off, fleabagger.
wasting more of your precious time?
Expect more sloppy intervention from the MSM as the narrative slips away.
We will be able to expose more and more of these efforts as conservatives on the inside copy Breitbart with these plans.
Media outlets will need to break free with objective reporting or lose the narrative altogether.
Soros-bestowed talking point #103.7 paragragh II.
no evidence.
not hard to discern when you see so many bots allegedly working for different entities but using the same phrases and metaphors.
LOOK—————-> I started searching names on the list. Found Marisa Holmes in several, specifically 0037.html. I found YT footage of a Marisa Holmes being forcibly arrested on #OWS here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9byOpunXWBw.
Grassroots, my ass.
MSDNC propagandists Al Sharpton, Ed Schultz, and now Ratigan are openly supporting the OWS yet no real outrage from the same people who said Fox was wrong for promoting rallies. More left wing hypocrisy exposed.
This sums the REAL difference between the two rallies:
So let’s compare Occupy Wall Street and the Tea Party.
Occupy Wall Street:
-No real purpose -Fight with police
-Open fornacation -Pooping on cop cars
-Overuse of mind altering substances
-Civil disobedience -Sleeping in a park
-Mounds of trash
-Supported by mainstream media
Tea Party
-Message: lower taxes and return to consitiution
-No fights with police
-No pooping on anythig
-No mounds of trash
-No fornication, open drug use, or civil disobedience
-Media calls teabaggers every name in the book.
I officially declare the people of Occupy Wall Street: “dirtbaggers!”
"No. I think I'll stay, thank you very much."
BTW I thought you were done here? Are you staying or leaving? Make up your mind or go troll on back to the Daily Marx I mean Kos and MoveOn boards where you belong.
Let me amend that to "potential and future candidates ," who were paid commentators. The Newt, Bolton, Huckabee, Santorum and the ever "will she or want she" Palin. Without the support and promotion of Fox News, the Tea Party wouldn't even be a household name.
But your indignation is amusing.
LOOK——————-> Email identified as 0038.html by Joshua van Praag with international cell phone number. He talks about having camera equipment and a videographer in his email. A search pulled up an IMDb with reading his profile, I would bet this is one in the same. IMDb is here and has worked with prominant directors. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0887747/bio
Right. What is his point by spewing his left wing talking points on this board. I see no point because those talking points quickly are dismissed with the facts. So like the OWS protesters Connor has no purpose here accept for trying to stir stuff up.
The graphic is appropriate. The loiterers are cattle.
Time is short and they know it, things will get worse soon. Be ready!
How can this be legal? Inciting the overthrow of banks? Now evidence you have crafted a message you "report" on?
I cannot imagine this is legal and I would gladly provide money to any legal fund to go after these people. I want my country stable, and my family DESERVES to not be in the middle of a liberal chaos riot zone.
Great catch. Will check out.
LOOK——————–> I'm not sure if this has been mentioned, however, with reports of Bloomberg's connections with the company that owns Zucotti Park (his girlfriend for one) and with the dates of these organizing emails (Sept 14) — does anyone find it a coincidence that Bloomberg was warning of riots in the streets? This article dated Sept 16. http://articles.nydailynews.com/2011-09-16/local/...
Let's see…
Didn't the "brain trust" at PMS-LSD recently let someone go for violating the "political affiliation" policy, who was that…..
KEITH OLBERMANN!!!!
If they do not FIRE Dylan Ratigan TONIGHT that would make the management of PMS-LSD a) Hypocrites or b) In the tank for President Downgrade's phony revolution!!!
Glenn Beck has never been a journalist. He is, and was, a political commentator who did more digging into Obama's connections than any of the "real" journalists did.
Sarah (with an "r", not a "w", maybe you need to work on your typing skills?) Palin is a politician. Of course she'll be involved in political movements.
I'm sorry if you don't like the fact that your "grass roots" effort is being shown for the fraud it is, with collusion from the media, Democrats, various unions, etc. Do both sides have big names involved? Of course. We admitted who supported us. Your side keeps trying to hide it. That's the difference.
Hey, when #occupy turns violent, can we get Ratigan arrested for fomenting violence?
There is a "Jason" who is frequently featured on Livestream.
Not while Holder is running the DOJ. Not while we have a Communist as POTUS.
Karma has a strange way of showing up at the most inconvenient times for people like this. They will get theirs, eventually.
An interview with Marisa Holmes, dated 9/22/11: http://english.ruvr.ru/2011/09/22/56583163.html
I asked you to name names. I'm not indignant.
All the people you mention were let go as commentators when they started running. Hell, they were let go when it was started be rumored they were running.
What's your point?
AnarchoSoc…Boolean…etc.
Ahhh the usual RW BS of ignorning the BEAM in their own eye, but POUNCING on the speck in their neighbor's. How convenient that The Glenn Beck was "never a journalist" yet he did more "serious journalism" than, lemme guess, "leftwing media" journalists…right?
And how convenient that you totally give The Sawwah Palin a pass because she's a "mere politician" which we should all expect politicians to be partisan and as such support their chosen partisan causes…right?
How utterly predictable. Instead of your ignorant unsubstantiated retorts, why don't you do something different for a change. Why don't you come up with some hard facts and proof from independent sources showing the MASSIVE support of msnbc to the rally. By that I mean equal to that of The FOXNews was to the Tea Bagger movements.
Why don't you surprise me with that…huh?
On second look at the title, I guess Dana isn't calling Ratigan the MSM but adding his name to them. But, I still don't know who in the MSM the article is talking about……maybe it's time for me to take a walk! I do think tho, that the term MSM is overused and perhaps losing it's original meaning.
Yet one more reason I trust virtually no news outlet. I even take what I hear/read on Fox sometimes with a grain of salt.
“If you don't read the newspaper, you're uninformed. If you read the newspaper, you're misinformed.” – Mark Twain
OWS is supported by big named commentator in MSNBC and giving positive spin coverage by the alphabet media. Also most of the coverage was very positive of OWS even though it's violent and slob movement unlike the TPM which got a fair amount of negative coverage
link: http://www.mediaite.com/tv/reliable-sources-panel...
Does this mean that when these "occupy" fools go completely nuts and start doing some real damage that a few of these "listos" could be held criminally liable for incitement or??
Our Great And Glorious Dear Leader is praising the Flea Party; He has not mentioned that the American Nazi Party, Communist Party, and people who REALLY like animals are part of the Flea Party.
This is the first time we have had a POTUS who openly supports self-styled violent revolutionaries; I am not deeply religious, but God held us.
LOOK—————–> I jumped to the last of the emails on this list just to check discussion of recent events. Meet Gail Zawacki from the list. http://www.bloomberg.com/money-gallery/2011-09-19...
So far you've included the following in your posts: "Sawah Palin," "FAUX News," "Hmmmmkaay!??," and "Tea Bagger." You've also claimed to be astounded by the ignorance displayed on this site — immediately after you spelled the word "moron" incorrectly ("RW MORANS"). Not to mention a boatload of other cliched gibberish. All of which goes to show what an immature, asinine, intellectually lacking loser you are. Now, tell me again why anyone here is supposed to give damn what you think or have to say. Run along before you embarrass yourself further.
With democracy haters at the congress legislating voter id laws and supreme court's turning corps into humans i would be surprised.
Save your typing-fingers, Xashex — he only gets paid for posting his crap here and similar sites. Spending time and posting his "enlightened views" on the Daily Marx or MoveOn boards would be on his own (unpaid-for) time.
Occupy Movement = Grassroots. Teabagger Rallies = Astroturfed by GOP and/or Religious Right interests.
Matt Taibbi? The filthy mouth? Snickering about violent rape fantasies of Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann? he's right up there with Mike Tyson – and now this? And he still has a job.
Sick.

Yes, Obama, Axlerod and Van jones, all backed by the numerous unions. This is their playbook for the 2012 campaign.
Financial backing most likely from Soros' hip pocket. There was never anything grassroots about the protests–the ads on Craigs List for protesters to be paid for showing up. They had detailed instructions on which trains, subways, etc. to take. Brietbart and Company are doing a fantastic job in getting this info out to the public. Naturally, the good old journ-O-lists got their talking points from the WH and Dems as well.
The truly funny aspect of this—–one protester on a video in LA was protesting with her sign that read "OBAMA LIED". Apparently she didn't get her copy of the talking points for subject matter.

The doofus in the WH certainly is partisan. He stated on April 15 (re Madison union thugs) that he stood with them–showing his support for the 'dirtbaggers' (good name for them) now. His job description is supposed to be president for ALL the people, not the glorified community organizer A$$ he displays. Indictment cannot come soon enough!
It's enough to make one miss the "subtle" bias of Walter Cronkite and Sam Donaldson. Kind of like Obama is enough to make one miss Bill Clinton. The MSM is now nothing more than a criminal conspiracy.
That's twice that I have seen you use Sawwah instead of Sarah, Helen.
Are you sure you are not referring to Bawney Fwank, when you mention tea-baggers in your comments? He's the only one I know.
Just tryin' to help you out, Helen.
What the hell does that have to do with Morgan not challenging Penn for an outrageous and socially irresponsible slander?
"Without the support and promotion of Fox News, the Tea Party wouldn't even be a household name."
No, without Fox News the Tea Party would have been seen by everyone as all the ugly things the ideologue media painted it as, instead of just by people like you.
The Corps already were human beings, and I agree with SCOTUS that it's BS when largely liberal states disenfranchise those deployed overseas because they'll allow inner city folks to vote 2 months in advance now, but can't be bothered to even start sending absentee ballots to deployed military until a week before the election *coughnewyorkcough*.
Also, how does voter ID law hurt democracy? Every counter-argument I've heard or read about it is about poor people not being able to afford it. How is that a valid argument when they're required to have state ID's to get their SSI disability and welfare checks?
Takin’ It To The Streets, a DNC/MSM/SOROS CAMPAIGN 2012 production starring Al Sharpton and Dylan Ratigan. Watch these master jugglers shape shift before your very eyes. Are they activists? Are they journalists? Which is it? You won’t be able to trust your senses!

Performance Script:
Intro –
The Bull is f ****g up the planet and the poor. When he gets sick, people want to make him feel better, some even pet his balls for good luck, not knowing that actually the good auspices go to the already rich and powerful. Well, it is time to f**k up the bull, metaphorically of course, and await for the hidden charm of revolution to take effect.
Action-
Every Tuesday or whenever people feel like it, violate the bull symbolically: have sex with it, fart on his face, read poems to it, lullaby the bastard, start a monologue (he won't listen), inject deadly substances on his penis, or whatever creepy abjection you can think of. Tuesday we will have a media team to film you, but if you do it in another time, make sure to film that stuff and share it with the world!
Requirements
-volunteers to annoy the bull
-tripod + cam (media team)
-symbolical actions – don't phisically destroy the bull dude, its dumb!
Where:
Charging Bull, near Bowling Green Station
When:
Every Tuesday! 12:00 meet by the Bull, 12:30 start!

Many voices have yet to be fully heard at Zuccotti Park before we can reclaim its original name. Let's have a dialogue with multiple voices, not a consensual monologue.

We should start working our minds for a new meaning of Thanksgiving Day, and for everyday."

Let me know and we can set a meeting place.
We can prove SesameStreet = astroturf
You haven't been able to prove ANY claims against the Tea party despite havinf three years to do so. hell, you denied its existence for over a year.
Wow, so much fail in one person. Congrats. I didn't think it was possible for one person to actually hold THAT MUCH FAIL! It's sort of like finding the Higgs-Boson particle. You are an achiever the likes of which the Soros funded web sites and Soros funded groups sponsoring the Soros funded SesameStreeters have NEVER before seen! Carry on soldier!
He has a strange accent, it reminded me of the old AM-PM commercial with the Soviet guy saying "That's no bolshevitz"
I think the bigger story is how the TV news mandarins create fake stories and fake phenomena such as this. OWS is not novel or interesting to anyone who's spent a week at a college campus. The participants themselves do not know why they are there. This entire thing is not even the equivalent of Hurricane Irene or the royal wedding; we're supposed to care because Nicholas Kristof and Paul Krugman are pimping a "movement" that's 1 part deeply misguided ignoramuses and 1 part trustafarians who don't even bother to vote
When you hand out free food all kinds of "grassroots" left-wing clowns will show up. I hear the CPUSA and neo-Nazis have joined up with you
AWESOME!!!
…and we've only just begun!
You need an ID to buy beer. Why not to vote? I'd say voting is a much more serious responsibility than buying beer, wouldn't you say?
I'm not sure who said it was wrong for a public personality to align themselves with a movement. The point is, WHO are they aligning themselves with?
Yeah, he's brainwashed – just like 2/3 of all those black folks who won't considering voting for Republicans. Only those who vote conservative have seen the light. Hallelujah brother.
That your indignation over Ratigan and any other liberal commentators supporting or helping the OWS movement is ridiculous, Nick, in light of all the help Fox and company gave the Tea Party. Beck, Hannity, etc. Palin wasn't let go…..
LOL…good one, Nick.
