Occupy Wall Street: Two Months In, A 'Day Of Action'

Protesters make a new push to mark two months since the Occupy Wall Street rally began on Sept. 17. Early Thursday, they sought to block workers from reaching the New York Stock Exchange, but met with a heavy police presence. In D.C., protesters hope to disrupt the afternoon commute.
