    Broadcasting the Vietnam war brought immense pressure against the government and led to tons of rallies and protests.

      Yeah there’s got to be tens of millions of Americans, maybe hundreds of millions, that have no idea that their government is bombing schools abroad. I bet there’s millions if not tens of millions who don’t even know anything about what ICE is doing in their own country.

      Make them see it and maybe they’ll be uncomfortable enough with it to go out and protest.
