I think there are many reasons for this.

One, the gradual realization within the MSM that they could actually agree with some of the tea party positions.

Two, the fact that tea partiers behave themselves.

Three, the tea party made it plain for the world to see that Democrats in the house and senate are corrupt, belligerent asses.

And Andrew Breitbart will make the MSM eat their words.

But let's not get comfortable and forget about Trojan horses...

Oh yeah, never ever forget who the enemy of the people truly is, the msm and the snakes that feed them.

Look at the Pelosi timeline on the tea parties.

First she complained about the way we dress, they she cried because we were so dangerous, they she claimed to stand with us, then she walked through a crowd of us with that smug grin, now she’s afraid of us again. I give her another week before she decides that she’s one of us again.

The reason is that that are losing viewership because it is they who are out of the mainstream.

Too late MSM and “progressives”...you have labeled us racists, homophobes, bigots, terrorists, extremists, haters, teabaggers (why you want to use a homophobic term to describe those you're accusing to be homophobes is beyond me) and all those labels are before you got nasty. We will REMEMBER in NOVEMBER.

What changed? Obamacare passed. It is “safe” to be a little more honest for a while. They’ll tone down the rhetoric until the next election or major Obama initiative, then the propaganda machine goes back into full swing. (imo).

So true. If anybody starts throwing racial epithets from our crowd, it'll be one of them.

Strange new respect? When did that happen?

I just see them trotting out their standard leftist bilge of “racist, bigoted, homophobic”

It’s like the Kraken, it’s a monster that keeps from striking out at you for a brief time so it can get a better idea of where to strike next so it’s on target next time.

Personally, I vote for following the money.

The ratings or PMSNBC and Cnn are lower than whale shiite.

Remember Ross Perot.

They are making it attractive so more Republicans become independence and then split the vote in 1012. Their boy Barry Hussein wins like Klitoon did.

Four, the MSM realizes that their time is limited, and if they continue to poke the tiger, the tiger will be coming after them as well.

They are just going to redefine the word like they did for “Evangelical”.

“Tea-party” will become another name for “Third Way.”

Return of the “Third Way”

They got what they wanted, but understand they made us mad.

But see...they want MORE stuff:

Now they’ll buddy up to us, and throw us some shiny baubles, and that will go full steam right b4 the elections; that’s when they let us sit at the, “cool kid table”, and even say we play pretty good football.

After November, then they go back to taking our lunch money and giving us Atomic Wedgies.

It’s simple, the media will begin to “legitimize” the Tea Party in hopes that they will run a third-party candidate against Obama two years from now.
