Don't forget to put tea bags in your KOOK-AID!!!
The only anti-government protest that a news channel has ever actively participated in and promoted, is FOX "news" "coverage" of the tea baggers. And it happens to be an anti-government protest when a Republican isn't president. In fact, it happens to be while the Republicans don't control anything. Wow! What a coincidence! FOX "news" claims they just want to give "coverage" to the tea baggers. How come they never gave any protests coverage besides this one? And to this extent? You have to be an idiot not to see what's going on here. But, that's OK, though, if you're a Dittohead, right?
Fox News Channel has staked out its position as the “voice of opposition” to the Obama administration by aggressively promoting the radical anti-Obama “tea party” protests set for April 15. Fox News hosts like Neil Cavuto claim that they are only broadcasting live from the events in order to “cover” them. But as Media Matters’ Karl Frisch pointed out in his column yesterday, Cavuto’s colleague, Glenn Beck, announced on his radio show this week that he is raising money for the protests as well. Do these "tea parties" have K-K-Karl Rove written all over them?

Organizers of the radical anti-Obama “tea party” protests have been trying to claim that the events are rising up spontaneously. Many of these organizers, such as Eric Odom, are claiming that the tea parties are being held by “regular American[s] in protest of government spending and extreme taxation.”
However, as Media Matters recently documented, Fox News has been aggressively promoting the anti-tax protests.
