The "tea party" movement is back.

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.

This should be hilarious. Teabaggers are going to make it easier on the real news media, demonstrating their idiocy right in front of the TV stations. I can't wait to see the videos.

And goodness, can't you people find some proofreaders?

Why are they wasting their time protesting NBC in Burbank? Are they pissed at the high spending of the entertainment industry? Go to the New York office people.

So CNN, ABC, NBC and CBS are going to listen to a group of people who don't even watch their shows? How many more segments of Obama being a fake American/secret Kenyan does Lou Dobbs have to do?
