Not that I have any say or control but ideally it would be nice if these town hall meeting protests produced more good rhetorical soundbites like the one that referenced the failed ‘cash for clunkers program’ and ‘not reading the bills’. Those looked great on FNC.

I'm sure there are a lot of good points being made in these meetings, but the media just shows the shouting and jostling without mention which side might be doing the shouting and jostling. Anti-Obamacare townhall participants could speak with the tongue of angels and the media would still do their best to portray them as a lawless rabble. With the MSM this is all about selling a viewpoint and protecting the overlord Obama, don't forget, not about portraying what's actually going on.

I specifically mentioned FNC which is doing a great job on this, but no great soundbites and they cant play what doesnt exist.
