A crowd of demonstrators celebrated the first anniversary of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Hundreds were arrested as they tried to converge onto Wall Street. "Occupy Wall Street: A Frenzy That Fizzled" By ANDREW ROSS SORKIN "More than 100 arrests were reported on Monday as protesters converged near the New York Stock Exchange.Marcus Yam for The New York Times More than 100 arrests were reported on Monday as protesters converged near the New York Stock Exchange. It will be an asterisk in the history books, if it gets a mention at all. A year ago this week, the Occupy Wall Street movement got under way in Zuccotti Park in Lower Manhattan. The loose group of protesters, frustrated by the economic downturn, sought to blame Wall Street and corporate America for many of the nation’s ills. While the movement’s first days did not receive much news coverage, it soon turned into a media frenzy, with some columnists comparing its importance to that of the Arab Spring, which led to the overthrow of leaders in several Middle Eastern and African countries, spurred by social media. Images of the Wall Street protesters getting arrested were looped on news channels and featured on the covers of newspapers. Big banks — and the famous Charging Bull statue that is an icon of Wall Street — were fortified with barricades. By the end of the year, Time magazine had named the protester its Person of the Year, perhaps rightly given the revolutions" (NY TImes BLogs)
