Does he really think that a bunch of people standing in front of the
studio singing a petition will make a difference? I know that NYC is
full of weirdos, but a singing protest has to take the cake. Maybe other
liberals could take to singing their protests. Maybe then they could
actually get some media coverage.
Actually, 'singing' your protest has long been a popular form of protest.

1970's:
