» Media blackout of black Chicago protesters marching against Obama - Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion: "Black Chicagoans from the south and west sides took their message to what they say is the source of the problem when they converged outside of a fundraiser held by Mayor Emanuel for Barack Obama and then marched to the studios of ABC News.
