    CNN for ya. Angry at protesters, this is the kind of story that they'll show, and that's it.

    Infuriating.
    It's so openly biased, yet viewers still think they get accurate information. That story was about one native, one person, but because that one person on the side of the station's bias, they'll air it.

    Thank goodness for the internet in this day and age. Other than actually being there, it's the only way to get even a basic understanding of what's going on. Main stream media is not going to give a true perspective. That would go against their interests.

    A Golden Eagle Lands On Standing Rock, Allows Water Protectors To Touch Him

    This is a stretch.
    An eagle spirit coming to him? Pretty selfish.
    The eagle was probably looking for food.
    This is too close for comfort to a bird landing on the emporium of Sanders.

    sorry I had to stop typing for a second I saw a bird land outside my window and I thought it was for me.

    The bird stayed for an hour, allowed people to get close, and then touch it. Not exactly commonplace.

    There was a bald eagle in Trumps office once and he got to touch it.
    Eagles can be trained.
    Oh the drama, imagine, an eagle landing during a crisis.

    Sad that this story has dropped out of a lot of people's minds (not that I really blame anyone for that, given these rumoured cabinet choices that the sexual predator is supposedly making). Neil Young spent his birthday playing at Standing Rock. That's pretty cool. I hope more big names go out there and try to keep this thing in the headlines - whatever it takes.
    Just so people know, "Donald Trump is an investor in Energy Transfer Partners, the company behind the Dakota Access Pipeline, and Energy Transfer Partners CEO Kelcy Warren has returned the favor, donating $103,000 to his campaign and Super Pac."
    Moreover, the erstwhile casino magnate waged fights for years against Native American casinos that threatened to compete with his businesses. Trump has at different times accused Native Americans of being mobbed up, drug dealers, or not “real” Indians, according to the Washington Post."     (The Guardian, Nov 8, 2016)

    It's unfortunate that this will probably go through. Not to mention the Keystone project and any other environmentally damaging energy push. Immediate easy job creation. Something Trump will promote no matter what the damage long term. You know he wants to create a legacy of his presidency, but there will need to be a lot of footnotes and asterisks.
    It's a hopeless situation...
