    Excellent ad, and I like who they targeted, the networks that are most opposed to the Occupy movement.

    Will the 1% respond with a flood of their own commercials? I've already seen a bunch by the banks and oil companies trying to themselves in a better light. Now will they attack the 99% with ads?

    I think that what is most likely is that they will keep showing "feel good" ads about banking and oil.

    they'll go after the occupy movement, but they'll do it with stealth attacks

    I've been wondering if this movement wouldn't benefit from changing it's focus (at least temporarily) toward raising funds for television adds. They can't pepper-spray/gas/otherwise torture/arrest a TV commercial.

    At least during the winter months, then in spring we could switch back to occupy again. Changing tactics is a powerful tool.

    Your thoughts?
