Groups of conservative protesters opposed to massive government spending are taking to the streets again, this time targeting the media.
The “Can You Hear Us Now” rallies are planned for Saturday in front of NBC studios in Burbank, CNN in Atlanta and affiliate stations of NBC, ABC and CBS across the nation.
“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 now set to boil in front of more than 30 press offices across the U.S.,” the lead organizing group, FaxDC, wrote in a press release.
Organizers are encouraging protesters to also rally outside of The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times and other prominent newspapers.
The rallies are just the latest in a series of public displays of voter outrage, dating back at least to April, when simultaneous “tea parties” were held around the country, largely in protest of President Obama’s $787 billion stimulus bill.

Lawyers and even used car salesmen have got to be happy campers lately. Politicians and now journalists are making the previously reviled look almost angelic by comparison. Now that is scary!
Scary, indeed.
