A brief mention on the Rachel fucking Maddow show!

(missing the "law" part of GMU but that's ok)

(PS I think they dramatized the yelling issue - we were outside, and did not break up after the incident they claim - I never saw Cuccinelli nor did I hear anyone heckle him, rather we had finished our speakers, heard he was going to stay inside and not address us, the session was limited to GMU Law students only, and it started to rain)

I checked the Washington Times, but they appear to be having technical problems as there was no mention of any disparaging words about Cuccinelli at their site.
We had several local politicians show up and speak for us:
Jay Fisette, Chair, Arlington County Board
Bob Brink, Delegate, 48th District
Abby Raphael, Arlington County School Board
(Chair was there too, but didn't speak)
