Arthur magazine ran a Feb 25th article on the NYU occupations and student politics going on in New York. You can read the whole article right here.

Quote:
The white noise of commentary of the blogosphere on the occupation has been largely dismissive and knee-jerk conservative, tacitly supporting the administration in the dispute. They have been widely commented on as “spoiled rich kids” with “ridiculous” or “pro-Gazan demands” who are “going about it the wrong way” and “deserve to be expelled.” NY Daily News published a reactionary opinion editorial on Friday that sounded like it was written by a cobwebby racist grandfather, calling the students “whiners, wusses and wheenies” and starting with the line, “What’s the matter with kids today?”
