This past Friday evening, there was a gathering of more than 4,000 people at the Puyallup Fairgrounds for the TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Party Express II rally to protest the massive expansion of government that is taking place under President Obama and the Democratic Congress. The attendance was more that double what the organizers had hoped for and far exceeded the capacity of the room where the meeting was held.
There was not one word in The News Tribune reporting on the event. Was the event not newsworthy or is anything that is anti-Obama being suppressed? There were many smaller protests during the Bush administration that were well-covered. Is this another example of media bias?
