Greek protesters unfurl banners from the Acropolis


"ATHENS — Student protesters evaded security guards at the Acropolis on Wednesday and unfurled two giant pink banners over a wall near the Parthenon to rally support for continued demonstrations against the government."



Good to see that protesters have got more media savvy. As PR stunts go this has to be one of the best I've seen in a long while.

I agree. It's rather moronic to write off the media as a tool of the government. you can use the media yourself - and should. stupid cops have been too careless in front of the media lately, and they've been also arresting journalists. heheheh.

but, i can't help but wonder. "Greek social forum acropolis protest for police violence"? doesn't that sound like they're FOR police violence?
