THE CONSERVATIVE MEDIA HOST A TEA PARTY

As President Obama and a Democratic Congress took office and started churning out legislation, most of the ultra-free-market advocacy and political action groups that would in due course be associated with the Tea Party did not possess the communications capacities necessary to reach millions of angry and disenchanted conservatives. Try as they might to capitalize on the mid-February Santelli rant, Americans for Prosperity, FreedomWorks, and their like would not have been able to get the word out on their own. Their contact lists and field networks were far too sparse. Conservative media outlets were thus vital to the rapid launch of Tea Party activism across communities and regions.
