I attended this Tea Party in Greenville SC. Rush Cassell from News Radio Word and Wendy Nanney (State House Rep) gave some inspirational speeches. It was a great turn out; the media at first reported 500, but then realized there was more. The turn out surprise many in the local area including the organizers.

There was a lot of shouting to remove Lindsey Graham out of office.

THE Media has beeen Ignoring and under reporting attendance at events that do not “FIT” their message.

3/17/2007 30,000 counter demonstrators in DC from Gathering of Eagles/Rolling Thuder/etc.. were ignored by the MSM, in favor of the 10,000 anti war protesters who were “covered” and “reported” ad nauseum.

When you’re there, and you are Ignored.....you stop watching MSM TV and stop reading the MSM Publications. You realize what has been going on for years, and Today’s realization is that you understand why the MSM is Dying.

LA Times, NYT, Tribune, USA Today, Alphabet networks, are sucking wind and the Death watch is on. If you do not represent America, America stops watching/buying/reading. RIP

We’re mad as hell, and we are not watching/reading anymore.

I attended the rally. It was a great turnout. We out did towns much larger than us. Which is indicative of this part of the country. I am proud of Greenville. It was rainy dreary night, but the fire of liberty was keeping the people warm :-)

I used to go the Greenville for some of the best chicken wings to be found anywhere in America...beautiful downtown area to ‘walk it off’ afterward. (Until we hit Marble Slab, that is.) You did America proud, Greenville...thanks!!!

That’s an Issue...a propaganda issue...the Sins of “Spiking” a story by ignoring it. Negative propaganda.

What we need to do, is pick a Site outside the Newspaper offices. OR....Line the Curbs / streets / blocks of a busy intersection. Then everyone that drives by, honks, waves, and gives a shout out or a thumbs up...they start wondering why nothing is one the News later that day.
Then the populace starts wondering about the Media...and Who they really represent.
If the MSM does not represent the people, then who ?
