There was a pretty large one in D.C. I posted some pictures on my facebook page:

There was a Tea Party in Prince William County also. I think the media types got wind of a bunch of right wing extremists gathering around the country and they were scared off. All the brave ones are covering the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, leaving behind the foam at the mouth and tingly toes types. Guess they were scared of being thumped by a bible.

Note the sign behind Tito that says, "Where's the Media?" CNN was there and they gave a small and pretty balanced report, however, the desk anchor in the studio gave a very sarcastic introduction. Tito took a shot at CNN for reporting biased and untrue information about Latin America and national poltics to the general public and especially to Latinos. CNN International's reporting on the affairs in Honduras have been inaccurate to say the least.

Tom:
The press has been more concerned with Michael Jackson lately. Crap 'n Tax, Socialized medicine and our protests of these are standing in the shadows. O'Reilly on Fox is acknowledging that ratings are driving news programming on every network to a certain degree and they're bemoaning the fact that all of the news is being dumbed down.
