My local paper elected to ignore yesterday’s protest on the front page & instead the “news” of the day was a historical trip down memory lane. 🙄 The protest write up with some photos was on page A4. Relatively tiny, local anti-abortion protests are treated as front page news.

Front page of Richmond Times Dispatch from Sunday, October 19, 2025 with full page story titled “20 moments of the past 175 years that changed Richmond.” No mention of yesterday’s massive “No Kings” protest in Richmond and the rest of the U.S./world on the front page.
