I watched Anderson Cooper interview someone (didn't catch his name, so if you did, please let me know) about the Tea Party movement.
They spoke about the upcoming Tea Party convention (or whatever you call it) as being a fundraiser.
My interpretation was that they thought that somehow cheapened the whole thing. Uhhh, doesn't any group trying to form need to raise funds?
They also reported that Sarah Palin would be paid $100,000 as the keynote speaker.
Once again, my interpretation was that they thought this made the Tea Party movement look badly.
Uhhh, It's been reported for over a week now -- on several other news channels -- and I've seen the actual interview with Sarah Palin that she is getting paid $100,000 and she has donated the entire amount to the Tea Party movement.
So, my question is.... Why didn't Anderson Cooper report the whole story instead of inferring that Sarah Palin was making a wad of cash off of Tea Party movement?
Is he just a poor investigative reporter or is it just another example of how no news channel (no matter how they like to pat themselves on the back) is fair and balanced?
