The typical NO-class media rears it's head again!

Yesterday was tax day "Tea time" Tea Party central all across America, as many true Americans came out in droves to protest higher taxes, big spending and the ever expanding big government. As expected many media outlets chose to either not mention it, just briefly cover it, or even worse down right make fun of and discredit what was going on. The wonderfully "non-biased" media spent plenty of time interjecting their disgusting sexual innuendos throughout their commentary, a disgraceful and shameful attempt to trivialize an important grassroots movement on a an important topic. Here's one article on the matter here:

And other outlets, like CNN chose to allow their reporters to just throw all professionalism out the window, like this reporter right here in my city of Chicago:



How this reporter could think she was just simply covering this story in an unbiased manner or even being remotely fair is absurd! I mean boldy claiming that FoxNews was promoting these grass roots events that have been popping up everywhere? Get your facts straight infobabe.... just because Fox chose to cover it (and simply just report on it like you are supposed to do) doesn't mean they are the ones who started it all! Americans started it, because they have something to say, because they believe in something, because they want to get the word out. We live in America and the last time I checked people can peacefully assemble and protest on all matters of topics. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that if this was just another pro-abortion or pro gay-marriage rally the reporter wouldn't have been so utterly rude and unprofessional. No matter what is being protested as a reporter you can't blatantly show bias toward the opposite end of the issue at hand, that's just not how it works! I'm currently searching for some video examples of the also equally ridiculous sexual innuendo comments made during several newscasts, yes... newscasts.

Disgusting media behavior...as usual.

On a good note, congrats to all those that came out and made their voices heard!!!! I wish I could have been there.
