Tea Party Success Escapes Media

Last week I wrote of the nationwide tea party movement and our mainstream media’s lack of respect for it.
I wrote: “That the numbers expected to participate are staggering can in no way be attributed to publicity in the odious mainstream media which can devote gallons of ink and expensive broadcast time on protests by small handfuls of left-wing groups opposed to the Iraq war or promoting gay marriage but can’t find time or space to cover the birth of a genuine and spontaneous nationwide citizens movement honestly.”
Right on.
Instead of covering the tea parties a legitimate expression of dissatisfaction with an out-of-control spendthrift federal government, the mainstream media derided it and universally portrayed those fellow Americans as near sub-human non-thinking goons.
The dissatisfied were unable to gracefully accept without question the beneficence of the glorious Obama administration at whose feet the mainstream media worshipfully grovels.
Just who are these people of the media?
For the most part they are the products of alleged institutions of higher learning presided over by a professoriate composed of devout Marxists who float above the grim precincts of reality while concentrating on expressing their hatred of America and inflicting their venom on their impressionable students.
Convinced they have been elevated into an elite by virtue of having spent four years under such informed and inspired tutelage, they go forth into the ranks of the nation’s print and broadcast media harboring the virus of imagined superiority over the citizenry of the despised United States of America.
