I looked at 38 papers. The NYT was one of only a few not to have it as the top story and photo
The handful of exceptions were pretty much all places with a big D1 football game
I genuinely don't understand why the NYT is so reticent to give coverage to one of the largest protests in history

Telegraph reports that James Orr has formally joined Reform UK and is now an advisor to Nigel Farage.
He could prove to be a key force in the party’s thinking and policy making.
A Cambridge academic, he is respected by many Tories - JD Vance calls him “his British Sherpa.”

Good evening. We estimate that between 4.2 and 7.6 million people turned out for the No Kings Day demonstrations held around the country on Saturday. This makes Oct 18 very likely the biggest single-day U.S. protest event since 1970. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/second-no-...
Second "No Kings Day" protests likely the largest single-day political demonstration since 1970, with 4.2-7.6 million participants
Here are the initial results from our crowdsourced crowd-counting estimates

Apropos of nothing, I really do think UK journalists and politicians need some reminding that mass deportation of LEGAL immigrants, particularly those with permanent status, is far more extreme than even Trump's America and would basically place Britain completely on its own among democracies.
