Quote from your front page:
"indymedia UK is a network of individuals, independent and alternative media activists and organisations, offering grassroots, non-corporate, non-commercial coverage of important social and political issues".
Manchester Evening News and imc have ignored Saturday's lively demo in Mcr against war involving 2000 angry people and blocking Oxford road and more as well as blockading the BBC. Not impressed - Faiford fine, but that was on 22M, involved around 1000 people and was not in Manchester. No article or piccy of this significant Manchester event on front page still. Why please?

While the bbc no doubt decide what not to run, if you don't see it on indymedia it's because a) no one reported it, or b) people working on features in the middle columns missed it - either way the answer is simple - get involved!
ok andy c you do post to indy - nice one. but don't spam the newswire with complaints, why not email indy and say here's a good report of x y or z instead?
Solidarity!
