Well, was it for all media organizations or just FOX? I really can’t imagine any Tea Party group charging for media exposure - but let the money makers in charge and there you go... I would think that if the group as a whole knew about that, it would be stopped!...

I think the local tea party who charged for proximity to Sean had good intentions, their cause is absolutely just, I just think they didn;t think through the broader implications of their impact, and Fox News was forced to make the tough call. I’m sure Sean hated it but understood.

The TEA Party group charged the SMALL fee because they had to cover the cost of renting the arena....not a cheap proposition

ah— you are getting it...

My guess would be that the Tea Party group was not charging anyone for media exposure....but.......

let’s say you plan a party....you invite a bunch of folks, reserve the venue....

then someone decides to invite themselves....and his friends have the ability to shut down your venue, and his self invitation comes with demands......then the folks who work for your uninvited guest are supposed to help you set up those demands....you send them the schematics to meet said demands weeks ahead.....then they wait until hours before the event to tell you your schematics don’t work, and when they do tell you, the message is lines with insults and contempt.....

this is all purely a hypothetical question....
