NPR covered the rally this morning
And Andrea Mitchell jest mentioned the number 250,000 at the mall.

Did the media get the memo?

And did sophisticated street comedy work?

1. Is MSNBC live this morning? Anyway, good for Andrea. Sometimes
I'm not sure she knows what network she works for. :)

2. well, what happened...
when ed schultz had his rally on October 3rd there was NO mention of it on the National PUBLICAN Radio. Thanks for the heads up, I could'nt listen this morning. I am sick of them and never listen to their "news" or commentary.

7. Remember how the numbers rapidly inflated for Beck...
from the realistic +/- 80,000 up to a million.

They are realistic, but no one is pumping up the numbers. The right wing echo machine is silent.

11. Now if NPR could only remember that we are the Democratic party, not the Democrat party.
Twice in the past week, NPR commentators (not guests or interviewees) have dropped the "ic" in mentioning our party.

You'd think they'd know better. For those commentators, I hear there's an opening for a common-tater over at Faux Snooze.

Just a suggestion. A serious one.
