The latest such report just aired on MSNBC. It exposes what some have come to call "Astroturf" protests (as opposed to legitimate grassroots protests) for what they really are: corporate-backed events that incite both the sincerely gullible and those with vested interests to do the dirty work of the oligarchs that own and run the country.
As soon as the video becomes available, I will post it here. You, in turn, MUST watch it.

UPDATE TWO
This is a priceless bit by Maddow about the supposedly grassroots mob that protested at the Miami-Dade Elections office to have the 2000 Bush v. Gore election recount "shut down." And indeed, as documented in the HBO movie "Recount". Consider that many of the rioters where paid for their services. You can see history repeating itself in the anti-health care reform protests that are going on these days. What a country!
