The Black Te(A) Society (
www.blackteasociety.org),
the leading anarchist group in Boston organizing
the protests against the Democratic National
Convention later this month, is to slated to be
featured on a segment of John Stewart's the Daily
Show on an episode premiering today. The segment,
with reporters Ed Helms and Stephen Colbert
reporting, includes interviews with members of the
Black Te(A) Society (which, incidentally, has a
friendster) and with local police and security
officials. The episode should be rebroadcast
throughout the weekend through Monday, beginning
tonight (Thursday) evening.
In Boston and New York, the news media have long
been paying close attention to groups like BTS,
altho most of the news coverage (which has blown
in frequency in the last few months) has been
focused on the security end of the story, usually
to the detriment of the protesters.
