The media is aiding the teabaggers

THIS is why DU is so unhinged today about the tea party protest in DC.

The media is aiding the teabaggers

Just watching NBC Evening News, who gave a huge opening bit to the teabaggery in D.C. today - far greater attention/coverage than I can remember for any of the anti-war protests in the lead-up to Iraq, some of which were far larger.

This is because NBC and all these other networks are trying to show the teabaggers, hey look, really, we're fair and balanced too! We'll give you more coverage than you warrant and far more than we gave the anti-war crowds because see, we like conservatives, we're not trying to discriminate!!!

And it ain't gonna matter a bit - the teabaggers are going to hate NBC as much tomorrow as they do today. Why doesn't that they are trying to win over a demographic they simply are --NEVER-- going to win over? When are they going to stop bending over backwards to say nice things about the clown show?
It's not the only OP like it on there today. They are jealous. And they are angry and resentful that conservatives just don't go away and make things easy for them.

8. This is the problem with people who yell the loudest...

If you have a public event, organized by a liberal group, you can have as many as three hundred people show up, but if only a handful of these crazy, screeching people show up, too, they get as much media attention as all the people who showed up out of sincerety, and they wreck all the work people had to do to get it all together, just by showing up and screaming. In other words, they have to do very little work to get a disproportionate amount of attention.

What that idiot said was total crap! The protests leading up to the Iraq war(s) were very well-covered by the media.. I remember having to watch that crap daily.

Also, regarding the Tea Parties on tax day, i was at one with 10,000 people, and we got NO media coverage, even though it was planned for a long time.. There wasn't one news camera there, but one brave AM radio station set up a table... That DUmmie is absolutely full of shit.

Yes folks...ABC, CBS, and NBC are all taking their marching
orders from Darth Cheney and Lord Rove. :rolleyes:

I honestly wonder how the DUmmies can be this delusional.

It's a miracle some of these so called intellectuals can post
and breath at the same time.

Please Kerry on DU!!! :D

It's a gross motor movement. Like chickens with their heads cut off, DUmmy's brains are non-essential equipment.
