Well, I broke my rule. Yes, I traveled more than two blocks to cover an event. But this was no ordinary event. This was the press conference for the Million March for God.
I’m relatively sure I was the only member of the news media (”news” “media”) at the event, though there were three cameras and one of them could have been filming for one of the local TV stations. Nonetheless, there was a good-sized crowd at the National Constitution Center auditorium, because a group of schoolkids from Washington DC private school were brought to fill in seats, which one of the speakers called a “miracle.”
Despite the strong language on the event’s website, most of the speeches at the event were mainly about vague (but good) concepts like health, education, welfare (the noun, not the program). There was no mention of modern medicine.
