I bet CNN didn’t expect tea partiers to have their own video


Update: CNN had YouTube remove the video. Weenies. But, as TNJim says below, you can still see it here

After the obnoxious CNN coverage of the Chicago Tea Party, we have coverage from Founding Bloggers of one the protesters taking the obviously biased CNN reporter to task

Brilliant! and for the rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrest of the story……LOL

It’s time to start a citizen journalism news site to put checks and balances in place for our own media!

That’s what the media was supposed to do with government. The MSM is now just an extension of the DEM party,

I hope CNN dies a quick painful death.

That has got to be the most outstanding video

yet. WOW!

I don’t know how that stupid reporter managed to keep the disdain in her voice the whole time she was spewing her moronic talking points.

It just keeps getting better and better with this woman.

The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it.

 

great video thanks for sharing

She should immediately be fired. Can someone start a petition? Boycott CNN? (I already block it on my TV whose tuner runs through my DVD), They get no more viewership from me, and its been this way for a year plus.

Last night Rachel Maddow on MSNBC to no surprised trashed the Tea Party participants as “secessionists” because of Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s comments and a few individuals who agree with this philosophy, as would I under the right circumstance and of course, as a last resort (if we truly go socialist)

 

I loved It!

That’s how you get back at Beavis and Gergen!

Hope is not a plan. Change is not always good.

 

We need more videos like this!

Catch the MSM in the act of subverting the news, WTG founging bloggers and wtg cindermutha for sharing!

I loved when the lady called the dingtart stupid.

Like conservatives couldn’t possibly organize themselves without someone to tell them what to do. Oh, wait. That sounds like libs. It’s a foreign idea to them that people could actually, gasp!, think for themselves.

 

This spread like wildfire at the tea party I was at...

Amy Miller Friday, April 17th at 1:55PM EDT (link)

…and I”m SO GLAD the Founding Bloggers posted what happened after CNN turned the cameras off. CNN has lost its cred with both conservatives and liberals (I talked to some at the tea party).

They took the video down.

CNN is claiming copyright infringement. Was the video actually their feed, or did they pull a punk move?

If you’re not networking, you’re not helping.

You can still find it, for now anyway

TNJim Saturday, April 18th at 3:08AM EDT (link)

at foundingbloggers.com. Here’s what they say about it:

“Obviously we hit a nerve with CNN because they forced YouTube to pull the video down, along with all of the comments people posted. Some other YouTuber (who we do not know and are not affiliated with) grabbed the clip before YouTube yanked it. That clip is embedded below.”

Claim copyright infringement all you want, CNN, you just don’t want anyone upsetting the negative tone you are trying to cast the tea parties in.

It’s so ironic that the left bills themselves as open minded. They are some of the most rigid closed minded people ever.

“recipient” of the MoH, not a “winner”. Same goes for bronze and silver stars and the service medal just before the MoH (Navy/Marines it’s the Navy Cross, each service has their own version).

Please don’t consider this a slap, I’ve seen the term used several times here at RS and I just got motivated to respond.

I vote for the people to start reporting the news anywhere & everywhere-----use the cell phone , the land phone the internet ,

I d/l this one myself. It’s the whole thing.
Everybody should d/l a copy of THIS one. We’ll all take turns uploading it to YouTube. Every.Day.

Absolutely awesome

I ran across this somewhere yesterday, I think either Melissa Clouthier’s blog or the AmericanPower blog. It’s WAY better than the CNN video getting all the attention. Citizen journalists like this person and the one who video’d the Don Fowler on the plane after the DNC (wasn’t it a RS’er who got that video?) are part of the guerilla politics we must employ to fight our enemies.

Government cannot be the solution when government is the problem.

Yes, Absentee, that was you

peg_c Sunday, April 19th at 8:13AM EDT (link)

who video’d Don Fowler. We need more subversion like these 2 examples!

Similar thing happened to me at

the Columbia, SC tea party. A young, smirky, camera/mike toting guy asked us why we were protesting our taxes (to which I replied it wasn’t about taxes); then he asked who told us to show up (like we were too dumb to make a decision on our own). When I didn’t answer his leading questions in the manner he sought, he tucked his swarmy little tail and crawled off.
