i heard on the news this morning that a broadcaster has been fired from an npr affiliate because she's been acting as a spokesperson for occupy dc. saw the story again in the daily beast and i was surprised to learn it was "world of opera" host lisa "the voice" simione, who i knew in annapolis 30 years ago. she had conspicuous star quality- smart, beautiful, vivacious, fun. a chic, brainy glamazon- obviously destined for an interesting life.
more- great hufpo coverage: link

I met Lisa Simione at the Stop the Machine occupation of Freedom Plaza in early October where she is on the steering committee. She is not with occupydc which is a different group. Although both groups have made great effort, when dealing with the media to distinguish themselves from each other, confusing these two groups has been a common mistake in the media
