American citizens outraged by President Obama and the actions of Congress have set their sights on a new target – the so-called mainstream media – with tea party protests scheduled in front of more than 30 press offices across the U.S.

More than 1,400 fans have flocked to a new Facebook page for the event. The following are some locations for protests being planned for Oct. 17:

It’s the “Partisan Legacy Media”
bflr
i hope they remember to call them fringe media
It is the Marxist Propaganda Media. The MPM.
Sounds like a great idea. Is this in reaction to the MSM downplaying and minimizing the tea party movement?
This is great, because the MSM can’t ignore something happening right on their doorstep.
This could be fun. The Today Show, CBS Early Show, Good Morning America on ABC, etc. all have the ground level newsrooms on these morning shows. And frequently the hosts go outside and talk to the people gathered there. Imagine if we see groups of protesters out there. It will be interesting to see how they handle this.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they decide to close the drapes and block off the street views on these programs. But I guess we’ll see.
ABC/CBS/NBC/MSNBC and CNN ceased being legitimate news sources when they began pimping for Barack Obama.
The are a bigger problem than 0. If they had done their job and reported just the facts, 0 would not be in the WH.
This could be the most effective protest so far.
Sorry about posting this twice (we must have posted about the same time; before I had updated the FR Homepage ;)!
I agree. Don’t see any scheduled for Illinois. The “Can you hear us now?” chant at the 9/12 rally was a great one. I can see crowds outside the MSM outlets all over the country chanting that....
Rush suggested this, and it IS a great idea! I hope those attending carry signs saying, “1.5 million people at the march on D.C., and YOU didn’t report it.”

for more on “what to call the msm”
I think one conclusion that was drawn was try not to call it the msm anymore.
Ours is being planned right now for D/FW. See http://www.operationcanyouhearusnow.com/ for info near you.
The State Controlled Unethical Media, or “SCUM” for short.
Correct. It is the Marxist Propaganda Media. MPM
