For those of you who know Denver, you know the 16th Street Mall doesn't normally look like this. I tried to take a picture that gives a sense of how the street is so packed with people. It compares to a New York sidewalk scene, believe it or not. Like I said yesterday, I've been feeling a lot of local pride; and then sometimes I feel like a stranger in my own city. It's a surreal week in Denver!
I covered protest again this afternoon. Iraq Veterans Against the War marched four miles to the Pepsi Center, after the Rage Against the Machine show. They had a police escort the whole way; and when the protest didn't disperse, the riot police came out in droves. At least 100 of them, in full armor, stood guarding one city block. There wasn't any violence though. My colleague Eric Whitney is filing a story about it tomorrow.
Several of my stories aired today. My protester vox finally aired:
Voices of Protest. And my business story:
Business Mixed Downtown.
