The 99%: Official list of Occupy Wall Street’s supporters, sponsors and sympathizers



The Occupy Wall Street movement has received so much media coverage in recent weeks that it’s nearly impossible to keep abreast of all the developments. So many endorsements and criticisms coming from all directions enter the news cycle in such rapid succession that even the most dedicated news junkies may have missed out on many of the pronouncements. Supporters and detractors of OWS both might find it useful to have a handy all-inclusive list of who has endorsed or embraced the protest.
To satisfy that demand, we hereby present a list of groups, organizations, individuals and entities that have expressed their support for, sponsorship of, or sympathy for the Occupy Wall Street movement.
Note: All entries on this list are real and verified. Below each entry you will find a series of source links documenting the support for OWS. We have striven in almost all cases to reference either first-hand statements by the groups or individuals themselves, hosted on their own Web sites; or videos of the people in question voicing their support for OWS at various Occupations; or news reports from reliable mainstream networks; or articles by publications or organizations sympathetic to the Occupy movement; or indisputable evidence, whatever the source. As a result, it cannot be claimed that these statements of support were made up or distorted by detractors of the Occupy movement.
As each new controversial endorsement has appeared over the last month, OWS supporters have dismissed them one by one as “isolated examples” that don’t reflect any overall trend toward extremism. But when viewed in aggregate like this, it becomes much more difficult to dismiss any individual endorsement as an aberration; instead, an undeniable pattern emerges.
This list is obviously incomplete; we hope to update it over the upcoming days and weeks.
If you think we’ve left out any well-known endorsers for which there is solid evidence, then please post suggestions and evidentiary links in the comments section; but please try to supply links that will stand up to any potential claims of misrepresentation.
If you disagree with the inclusion of any of the entries on this list, please post your reasoning and any contravening source links in the comments section, and we will take the evidence into account when updating the list.
Members of the media, bloggers, activists, OWS supporters and detractors as well are all free to repost this list, in whole or in part, without any restrictions. Do note, however, that it may be updated over time, so make sure to get the latest version.
And without further ado, here is…

Pathetic.
"OWS supporters have dismissed them one by one as “isolated examples” that don’t reflect any overall trend toward extremism."
This is obviously the propaganda that bankers want. Removing a system that holds the people as slaves IS extreme. This writer is using extremism as a label to demonize people who want to be free.

Good on Zombie at PJMedia for going to the trouble of beginning to list “all the radical groups, organizations, individuals and entities that have expressed their support for, sponsorship of, or sympathy for the Occupy Wall Street movement.”
This is really just a partial list. A much longer one is in the works. Just cruise the comments section to Zombie’s piece and you will see additional names flooding in.
“Occupy Wall Street” and their high-profile, fervent supporters really do demonstrate the culture war, that America is facing. Things are going to get very ugly next year. And to know that Barack Hussein Obama is one of those at the head of this bowel movement, should worry every liberty-loving American, and shame the Democrat party for eternity.
