VIDEO: OWS Occupies Movie-Set Replica Of Itself, for Real | Mother Jones

It’s straight out of a Don Delillo novel: A few hours after television producers set up a replica of Occupy Wall Street for the filming of a new episode of Law and Order Special Victims Unit, the real Occupy Wall Street announced plans to occupy the fake one. At 11:30 p.m. the call to occupy the set went out on Twitter. It’s located at nearby Foley Square and includes a replica of the OWS kitchen and library as well as numerous tarps and tents. “They’ve delivered us this perfectly wrapped Christmas present with a bow on top: They rebuilt our camp,” OWS organizer Jake De Groot told me shortly before the announcement went out. “How could we not go and take it?”

Amazing. This is a nice sequel to “#Occupy as Live Action Role-playing” (my take or barthel’s when it was republished).

    Certainly this saves the producers of Law and Order from having to hire extras.
