Should our energies really be devoted to ensuring the mainstream public gets the “right” message?

Absolutely, if you want the movement to grow.

Which I most certainly do. Perhaps I should clarify. I remember an interview Breitbart gave on bias in the media. He said that we should have two medias, like the British have. One right and one left. He said that’s the mature thing. So in that sense I’m all for developing our own media presence i.e., Rush (Fox news to some extent—not so much now) other talk radio personalities and social media. However, I believe any energy “fighting” the left-wing establishment media is pure folly. In terms of messaging we need to get away from why they get it wrong and more on why we get it right. The Tea Party movement grew in spite of them because of our own media channels, not because Maddow or Morgan said something. Fundamentally, I have a hard time believing there is an “undecided” public out there anymore that is susceptible to the PR battle that requires us to scream “FOUL” all the time and play a reactive game.
