    They were financing the tea party along with the Koch brothers. OWS is competition to them. z

    The Occupiers are NOT "the people", they are an astroturf rag-tag group of anarchists breaking the law while being supported by big corporations, industrial millionaires, and hypocrite politicians who created the whole economic disaster we're in now.

    Because they are not right wing nutjobs even though they have some of the same ideas as the Tea Party.

    The OWS folks are a melange of liberals, libertarians, college students, the chronically unemployed, anarchists, the homeless, and the mentally ill, and this group is >90% of any given OWS group.

    That is enough of a reason to ridicule them.

    Have you been witness to a coherent demand list, or a list of changes that have any bearing on reality? No.

    Reasonable behavior gets reasonable coverage. Unreasonable behavior gets mainstream and democrat-leadership attention.

    Because FOX is (for the most part) a very right-wing station, and OWS (for the most part) is a very left-wing movement.

    All they do is show the interviews of the protesters, they make themselves seem stupid Fox doesn't have to do anything.

    The OWS clowns are so full of contradictions that people simply cannot resist the temptation to point them out.

    apparently you have not listened or watched any of the OWS crowd or you could answer this yourself!
