According to today`s “Tagesspiegel” and “Berliner Zeitung” we were about 600 yesterday. Sadly, both newspapers report only very shortly about the demonstration: three sentences in Berliner Zeitung (”Protest gegen Irans Präsidenten”, page 17) and (double!) six sentences in Tagesspiegel (”Über 600 Menschen demonstrierten gegen den iranischen Präsidenten”, page 9). The anti-war demonstration in Washington got almost half a page and a picture in “Tagesspiegel” (picture and subtitle are not online available). Furthermore, Tagesspiegel cites the number of 100.000 demonstrators twice although this is wishful thinking of the organizers. In fact, as DIE WELT reports it has been only 40.000. Okay, still more than we have been. But hey, our demonstration happened in Berlin and these are Berlin newspapers, so a little bit more information about our demonstration would have been extremely nice to have.

PS: Honestly Concerned states that at the end of the demonstration when the speeches were held, we were up to 2000.
