This graphic should definitely not be on moveon like this. The title is completely misleading. This is a self selecting poll on one website. It is not the Occupation and it is not the movement. The graphic pretends to be a graph, but isn't. There is a Fast Company (whatever that is) logo on it. And we are having a real controversy on this site about it. It could have been worked on for a while before it was released.
I don't know who released it. Once it hits this discussion list anyone could get a hold of it. But if the person that posted it on moveon thinks it was good for the movement, I have to disagree.
And here it is JUST AS I THOUGHT --the official release---the
demographic data of OWS ---released by MoveON!!!! yes you guessed
it--the same folk we were taking about
