Tea Party started by media...

[Evasporque]

I swear this whole midterm election ramp-up has been manipulated by a handful of media companies to drive revenue.

Record money spent by candidates means record profits for media companies.

The media profits from sharp political division and gridlock.

Why would they report what they see when they can throw fuel to the fire and up the revenue in an election year?

4 Billion spent on this election...and counting...and 5 or 6 companies control 90% of the media.


If anything this election should highlight the need for campaign finance reform and disclosure.


We are long overdue.

1. I agree AND media started the mantra that democrats are defeated, Pres Obama is unpopular etc.

Why does everyone believe it? I don't. We are not defeated if we all go vote.

The rally shows that there are more of us than there are of the old White guard. (that is not meant to include all White people)

2. How very true

Media wants viewers and they attract them with protest rallies...
