‘Occupying Fox News’: See the Occupy Wall St. Ad that Aired During ‘The O’Reilly Factor’

If you can’t beat them, advertise with them. This is apparently the new adage being embraced by filmmakers who are sympathetic to the Occupy Wall Street protests.
At least one director and his associates have purchased ad space on Fox News and Bloomberg Business TV, among other outlets, in an effort to bring the Occupy message to opponents.
Believe it or not, the group even bought time on “The O’Reilly Factor.” On Wednesday night, the pro-Occupy ad was slated to air three times during the program — once during the 8 p.m. time slot and two times during the program’s second showing at 11 p.m.
Host Bill O’Reilly, of course, hasn’t been supportive of the Occupiers. Below, see a recent report during which he said, “There is no question the ”Occupiers” are now on the lunatic fringe.”:
The advertisement apparently appeared over the weekend on Fox seven times, although it also aired on ESPN, History International and the Outdoor Channel, among other networks. This first ad, which you can watch below, was directed by David Sauvage, who recently completed work for the Wall Street Journal:
Some may be wondering how monies were raised for the project. After all, getting an ad placed on network television isn’t easy — nor is it cheap. Apparently, a web site called Loudsauce allowed activists to raise the funds needed to bring the project to the small screen.
In addition to the above ad, there are apparently two others that have not yet aired. Sauvage, of course, is seeking more funds to bring these to television as well. Here’s a screen shot of the fundraising page, where supporters are encouraged to give small gifts of under $100:
According to MarketWatch, Sauvage says that he became interested in helping the Occupy movement after he went down to see what the protesters were all about. Clearly, he was captivated and, thus, he decided that he wanted to “capture” their energy. In an e-mail to the outlet, he wrote:
“I went down there one evening and I was inspired. I had the feeling that the protesters really did know what they wanted. And it was wonderful that they wanted different things.”
The director’s choice to see the ad air in such controversial placements is intentional. ”I want to put it in places where you don’t expect. I’m a big believer with talking to the other side,” Sauvage said. He has jokingly referred to the effort as “occupying Fox News.”
Below, watch another ad that includes footage of an October 14 standoff between police and protestors. The Occupiers can be heard chanting their familiar line, “The whole world is watching,” with some of them holding up peace signs:
And here’s another, 15-second clip:
The Huffington Post reports, “Former White House adviser Van Jones and his new Rebuild the Dream group have been promoting [the first ad].” Considering Jones’ ideals, this is no surprise.
It will be interesting to see if Sauvage and Jones hook up in the near future on other Occupy-related initiatives.

Posted on November 10, 2011 at 11:22amJust who is claiming there is no money ? I thought it was clear, the 99% do have some money. the moment isn’t about a “free for all” as FOX, RUSH, BECK,.. try to paint it as. One side always tries to demonize, marginalize the other by offering a few facts, shows a few clips of a few wackos that EXIST in EVERY MOVEMENT and paint the whole as being 100% bad. There are 2 sides to EVERY story, and people who seak truth , I think know that. The insecure cling to issues being black and white. Certain media knows this and plays on people’s fears and tries to spin the whole movement as being controlled by a few extremists. I never listen to one side telling what the other is about, they will of course spin the message. Its fine to not be for the OWS, but don’t believe you are getting an accurate picture from a cons. based media source. since their ratings are based upon presenting a cons. agenda. For example:I have never heard RUSH say anything positive EVER about ANY 1 thing a dem. did right. If that is true , then why ? it wouldn’t help his ratings hence his $.

Posted on November 10, 2011 at 11:22amIf you follow the money on the Tea Party, it always comes back to the Koch brothers. The Koch brothers who have more money than Soros and seek greater personal involvement in American politics than Soros ever sought. They are also more extreme and reactionary than most Americans. They’ve been very effective in getting you folks to spout their talking points, even when it’s against your own interest. Look at what has happened to the income of people like the Koch brothers and look what has happened to the middle class. Our incomes grew at about 20%, theirs grew by over 250% in just the 30 years. We can’t afford another 30 years of this, the top 1% controls 20% of the economy, double what it controlled 30 years ago, if the same happens, they will control 40% of the economy, leaving the rest of us with just 60%, is that your idea of the American Dream?

Posted on November 10, 2011 at 1:58pm@Balpit, you are correct. However, SWALT parroted poor Boxer so earnestly, I was struck by the similarity. Orwell’s point was that ordinary people are often the unknowing tools of the plutocrats who rule them. The same is true of The.Gatekeeper who actually defends “Trickle-down Economics”, not even David Stockman does that anymore. Reaganomics wasn’t “Trickle-Down“ it was ”Gusher-Up”, there was a class warfare waged in the last 30 years and the middle class lost ground. Here is another article if you don’t believe me:

Real, earnest, hard working Americans are being crushed under an economy controlled by a very small number of people who have used their power and wealth to acquire even more power and wealth from these good people. The problem with destroying the middle class is that they will eventually destroy themselves, without the middle class, with everyone reduced to poverty, there will be no one to buy their goods or services. Yes, I want to see people be able to earn things for themselves, I got what I have by earning it, it didn’t come to me from my working class parents, and I didn’t buy tax advantages through political connections and money. Whatever I have came through honest work. I would wish that others could have that, too. “Animal Farm” and “Nineteen Eighty-Four” were written with Soviet Russia in mind, but the scary reality is that it fits so well to what is going on in our modern corporate kleptocracy.

Show me a Tea Party protest where any of the things that occured at an Occupy rally happened with Tea Partiers. You can’t find it.
The BIG difference between the Koch Bros. and Soros is that the Koch Bros. didn’t break the Bank of England.

Posted on November 10, 2011 at 5:45pm@000Degrees, From my reading, I have reason to believe the “pie” is shrinking. Yes, the U.S. grew at a rapid rate, but there has been no increase in “real wages” expressed in “constant dollars” in the last 40 years. The U.S. used to build stuff and invest in infrastructure for the future. Infrastructure has been crumbling for the last few decades and most manufacturing jobs have been sent overseas. Instead, we made the buying and selling of money the business of America and we created bubbles and deficits, enormous deficits so we must cut services. The USA Today article makes it clear that the middle class is worse off than they were a decade ago, despite a rise in productivity. Did it ever occur to you that my slice of the pie is already bigger than I ever expected, but maybe I wanted others to be able to have some of the pie, too?

thank you union thug friends for sending jobs overseas…and of course governmental rules and regulations…
but you‘re lying again about ’we used to build stuff’…or you’re just ignorant….
Americans make more “stuff’’ than any other nation on earth, and by a wide margin. According to the United Nations’ comprehensive database of international economic data, America’s manufacturing output in 2009 (expressed in constant 2005 dollars) was $2.15 trillion. That surpassed China’s output of $1.48 trillion by nearly 46 percent. China’s industries may be booming, but the United States still accounted for 20 percent of the world’s manufacturing output in 2009 — only a hair below its 1990 share of 21 percent.
“The decline, demise, and death of America’s manufacturing sector has been greatly exaggerated,’’ says economist Mark Perry, a visiting scholar at the American Enterprise Institute in Washington. “America still makes a ton of stuff, and we make more of it now than ever before in history.’’ In fact, Americans manufactured more goods in 2009 than the Japanese, Germans, British, and Italians — combined.

Posted on November 10, 2011 at 12:18pmI’ve called them the “entitlement generation”…..brought up with false self esteem.
A college education was pushed as being the key to success when it has just turned out to be a piece of paper…..a pedigree. Every one can’t be the same or equal. There is always a bottom and a top. They have lowered standards in grade school on up to help the ones so they wouldn’t feel on the bad side of competition. When did competition, hard work and success become bad? It started in grade school. Too many stood silent and bought into this whole social engineering project with all the political correctness and kissing up to everyone’s self esteem. Now we have a bunch of arrogant grown kids. Confidence and arrogance are two different things.

People must work for their own way, government cannot and should never be used to prop up a society the way it has in Europe and even here in the US.
