Occupy Wall Street is an ongoing movement started in New York City on September 17, 2011. The aim of Occupy Wall Street is to address the growing gap between the economically comfortable "1%" and the less affluent "99%" of the population. NBC News has been covering this movement from the very beginning and this dramatic montage of news clips from various moments in the protest's history shows only a fraction of NBC's coverage.
