Saturday on NBC 10 Boston reporter Sue O’Connell said the crowd at the “No Kings” rally in downtown Boston was older, “white hair” folks.
O’Connell said, “So from what we can see from our viewpoint here in the studio and talking to our crew on the ground and some people I know who are there, this is an older crowd. There’s not a lot of folks, and granted, it’s a big crowd here, I’m not good at estimating, but it’s definitely over 2000, maybe close to 3000. We can’t see everyone, but it’s an older crowd, a lot of white hair you see out there, Q-tips, as we used to call them in the business. They are out protesting, and not a lot of young people. And also, again, portraying this I hate America idea that this is what this protest is about, showing people who are Boomers and middle-aged out taking time from their day on a Saturday to come and protest and be heard at the nation’s oldest public park, Boston Common, in the home of democracy and the revolution in Boston.”…
