I dunno, I think the media has been more then fair with OWS.
Afterall they're all reporting about the outrage of students sitting down being peppersprayed.
And ignoring the fact they were pepper sprayed because they were sitting down SURROUNDING the police, who were trying to leave the area with people who were arrested.
You have prisoners, people are in your way and refuse to move... what's the other option there?
You could call for backup, to arrest them, maaaaaybe, but then you risk someone getting violent before then, while surrounded. Or even worse a larger crowd building around it AND then it getting violent, while fostering a belief that the police can't... well police.
