I must apologize for my lack of posting this week. I am still struggling with what particular blogging methods and style I shall employ, and am still having especial difficulty trying to figure out what to blog about. All in good time.
Today I present a link to Titanic Deck Chairs for his post regarding analyses of the Tea Party protests that have been happening recently. The limited media coverage I have encountered has been disappointing.
Perhaps the media's attitude can be summarized in this video:
To summarize, a reporter at one of the Tea Parties questions a protester and immediately becomes hostile after the protester mentions Abraham Lincoln's stance on liberty, going so far as to cease interviewing him and argue. She cuts off the interview by stating such was not suitable for "family viewing" and that things should switch back to the anchorwoman (despite nothing offensive taking place). Even stranger, the anchorwoman states that this is a "prime example of what we're following across the country" when it was the reporter whom had made a spectacle of herself.
An excellent analysis of this can be found at The New Clarion.
