‘Die-in’ by anti-cop brutality demonstrators planned at News Corp’s New York offices
The Ferguson National Response Network has targeted the headquarters of Fox News and the New York Post for a 2 p.m. protest Friday. ‘Shut down the New York Post!’ blares a flier posted on the Ferguson protestors’ Tumblr site. ‘Boycott their racist lies.’
Anti-police brutality protesters are planning to hold more rallies in New York City this week, including a “die-in” in front of News Corp’s Midtown offices.
The Ferguson National Response Network has targeted the headquarters of Fox News and the New York Post for a 2 p.m. protest Friday — followed by similar actions around the city.
“Shut down the New York Post!” blared a protest flier posted on the Ferguson Network’s Tumblr site.
“Boycott their racist lies,” it added.
The flier calls for a 2 p.m. rally and “die-in” in front of News Corp’s headquarters near 48th St. and Sixth Ave.
“Despite its propensity for racism a good number of Black and Latino men support the NY Post because of their sports section,” the flier reads. “So by not supporting the NY Post we are sending a message that this won’t be tolerated.”
More protest sites were being added as the flier circulated on Twitter with the hashtags #NewYearSameFight and #blacklivesmatter.
