Media's coverage of RNC protests missed the real story

September 2, 2008 — 6:40pm

I walked in a peace march Monday. I walked alongside military families, grandparents, educators, students and young families with their children in wagons. It's too bad that a few anarchists who have absolutely nothing to do with peace get all the media coverage while the 10,000 others are pretty much ignored by the media. JANET SOLETA, WOODBURY
