First, someone should look at the coverage map of the area. Verizon and AT&T are iffy, and Sprint and T-Mobile are non-existent. Second, the article starts with "The demonstration at Standing Rock, North Dakota is the largest gathering of indigenous people in modern American history." which is taken from the source material's statement "The largest gathering of indigenous nations in modern American history". The article cannot even get its first fact correct, and frankly I would dispute NBC's statement as well. I guess we haven't heard of Pow Wows and government meetings. I also notice that both articles seem to gloss over the indigenous versus non-indigenous ratio. Not good for the narrative I guess. Also, to be truthful there was a fairly sustained attack on all North Dakota networks when that damned actor from the avengers said the state should be hacked. I guess he forgets that all the tribal schools are on the ND network. Maybe some of the protesters were caught in that? [okay fine, cracked is factually untrue, but I get down voted for being here - wtf?]
