1. Same reason no one saw the Bush inauguration protestors...
or the pre Iraq invasion protestors. At most they got a ten second mention.

Buuuuut, gather together a dozen Teabaggers and suddenly its wall-to-wall coverage!

2. 100% correct
The notion of a liberal media is one hell of a myth.

5. and the one million person march for Women's Rights that was in DC in 2004.
I was there..and not one of my friends who did not go saw even one second of info on it on TV!!!





The media is, for the most part, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the RWingnuts.

3. They know their daytime audience well
Most of the people who watch cable news during the daytime are older than god, generally bored and bitter, and really don't want to hear anything that doesn't support their prejudices.

When people under 60 start watching in the evening, they take that slight leftward turn.
