Occupy Wall Street has been for a month in New York City, it was started with 80 protesters, a small scale, however, since an attack on people who didn’t actually participate in the demonstration around financial district with pepper sprays, the number of protesters has increased over 1,500 people and this event has spread out exceedingly fast all around the world.
Likewise, journalism disseminates to the public when something special happens, in this time, journalism has an important role in the process of an event. It not only informs people what’s exactly going on, but it also makes people form the public by appealing to the public in the form of emotional journalism. In other words, it becomes one of the forms of the demonstration for the public. With this process, lots of protesters who have been through hard times all around the world occupied their financial districts to appeal their financial difficulties, just like The Moving Abolition onto the National Agenda, in the story.
In contrast to the story, Occupy Wall Street is a modernistic demonstration. Even though there was the brutal attack on the people, the protesters at least had basic rights of human being, which they could occupy the street and exclaim what they wanted as citizens. On the other hand, people in the eighteenth and nineteenth were so oppressed to appeal to the public and also had no rights to do something they wanted as citizens. But they tried to occur revolution. As the result of their attempt, it brought on a lot of people’s death and damages in the country as we read the story.
We never know how more it’s going to be revolutionary, however it’s sure the journalistic power is going to be stronger and the number of protesters is increasing more and more all over the world.
