Is it a protest?  Or a soccer rally?  Or an election debate?

No info about it.  I'm curious about what is happening.

Spanish protest for 7th day despite 1-day ban on demonstrations
 

By Al Goodman, CNN Madrid Bureau Chief

May 21, 2011 -- Updated 1955 GMT (0355 HKT)
Madrid (CNN) -- Thousands of Spaniards protested on Saturday in defiance of a court-approved ban on demonstrations the day before Sunday's local and municipal elections.
 
The largest crowds, for a seventh straight day, were in Madrid and Barcelona, but there were also protests in Valencia and smaller cities, protest organizers and Spanish news media reported.
 
Overall, reports indicated that tens of thousands took to the streets across the nation, which is struggling with a 21% unemployment rate, the highest in the euro zone.

Good catch, bro.  21% unemployment is huge, and I'm assuming the young adults are the ones getting hit the hardest.  I wonder if the 21% figure is accurate, or is it like the US government's inaccurate unemployment numbers which keep the figure lower than it actually is.

I wonder how accurate the number of viewers on ustream is, I feel the numbers are deflated. Just seems with all the tweets and likes on face book it would have garnered 5-20x the views its receiving now.
