MSNBC: 'Maybe Half' of Min Wage Protesters Are Fast Food Workers

MSNBC’s Craig Melvin reported that “maybe half” of the participants in a protest in New York City by fast food workers for an increased minimum wage were actually fast food employees on Thursday’s “MSNBC Live.”

“I can tell you that, of the 300 people that we saw this morning, I’d venture maybe half were actually fast food workers.  There were a lot of people there who were not fast food workers” he said.  And, “There were also some other folks who just showed up to protest.”
