News asks what the boom is doing to the city
FEB 02 2014
A February 2014 news segment on the tech boom's effect on San Francisco, framed around the argument that it was changing the character of the city. It aired between the December 2013 shuttle blockades and the April 2014 Gmuni action, when costumed protesters at 24th and Valencia staged a satirical public-access programme for the buses. Contemporaneous broadcast reporting rather than retrospective.
