American taxpayers are planning to storm more than 100 mainstream media offices and stations across the nation next week in protest of a media blackout of the growing movement against Obama administration policies.
Following sparse coverage of a massive 9/12 march on Washington, talk show host Rush Limbaugh urged citizens to bring their protests to the front doors of major media outlets.
"The media [are] no longer reporters. They are repeaters," Limbaugh said on his Sept. 14 show. "There have been hundreds and thousands of protests by conservative groups that haven't been covered, and tiny turnouts by the Left that are covered."
It's not just Obama who's lying. It's his Minion Media, too!
He suggested citizens host tea parties "on or next to the properties housing the TV networks." "Dare them to cover what's right under their noses!" he said.
Limbaugh suggested leaders of the media rallies present a list of grievances to each individual station. "Make the challenges substantive and adult and challenge their journalistic ethics," he said. "... I want this all to happen spontaneously."
Now, a group unaffiliated with Limbaugh is preparing to do just that.
"Operation: Can You Hear Us Now?" is planning more than 100 media protests across the nation next week. Nearly 7,500 fans have flocked to a Facebook page for the event. The following is a video advertisement some volunteers put together to promote the events:
The following are some locations for planned protests. Unless otherwise indicated, the protests are scheduled for Oct. 17:

Already had the Oct. 17 on my calendar. I see a Friday afternoon one has been added in Chicago.
I’m disappointed that no one targeted any of the Louisville establishments. The Courier-Journal is in despirate need of a cultural enema.
And before anyone calls me the Posting Police, I just though you would be interested in the comments on that thread.

Way past time to hold them accountable. Although their ratings show some reaction to their blatant bias.
Pssst—CNN will be more than fun to do in Atlanta! 12-2.
The day of the Washington tea party, our local ABC radio station (WTOP) reported that there was a 6K run in the area and, oh...yes, some type of rally in DC. Even well into the afternoon when everything was jammed they were reporting "some event taking place in DC". However, they did take the time to announce two days before that MoveOn was planning a "major rally" in DC in support of the administration, and kept reporting it. Sixty people showed up.
These protests won’t be reported either. On the day this takes place Obama will be named the new Pope & suck out all the oxygen.
Soooo, do ya think the feds will use this new audible device that hurts your hearing?
Do ya think the govt. will send in the riot squads to beat protesters?
Do ya think the govt. will fire on protesters like they did at Kent State?
After all, these damned protesters are extremists.
Obama has paid them off with pro Obama Health care ads to the tune of millions and millions of dollars. They will continue to promote OBomba
The WaPo ombudsman will write a column in which he claims to have carefully considered the protesters’ complaints and found them without merit.
Take shoes and toss it at them....LET’S SEE HOW THEY LIKE IT! Any reporter you see, throw the pukes OLD SMELLY SHOES!!
