Important News 11-17-11

The day's most important news is arguably always found here. Today's important news wire highlights the Occupy Wall Street movement in New York City and the "day of action," underway in NYC. Protesters greatly disrupted the actual Wall Street this morning, and so Mayor Bloomberg may now regret having evicted the group from the nondescript park that housed them previously, found off-Wall Street. Maybe you should have thought it through a little better Mr. Mayor. Protesters will be holding up the subway later today, around 3 PM, so you may want to take a taxi home tonight if you live in NYC. Finally, Brooklynites might better choose the Manhattan Bridge over the Brooklyn Bridge, since the day will wrap up with a crossing of it.
