As WND reported, the "Operation: Can You Hear Us Now?" webmaster, who has chosen to remain nameless, launched his website on Sept. 15. After only one week, he is experiencing an outpouring of support from citizens interested in hosting and attending rallies.
"People are really psyched up," he told WND today. "There are thousands of new visitors coming to the site daily."

So are there protest set for Fox News affiliates also. They have the most overtly biased broadcast of all the networks.
2:14pm
Fox will cover every event , including this one , because they are not biased . More power to the the people ! We will stop at nothing , please remember this!
Can you offer up an example of the so called bias ? I mean since when is questioning the Administration bias ? That's their job to scrutinize government after all it's tax payer money they spend !
Typical liberal hit and run statement they hate the sun light .
2:31, not to mention, there wasn't much scrutiny at all of Bush. Where was their hard hitting journalism when it came to analyzing the justifications for war, even after the fact. Where was the piece exposing the Halliburton contract AFTER they had been admonished for shawdy work and fraud. Fox and conservs are screaming about ACORN while Halliburton should be the ones being denied gov. funds.
While other networks did get on Bush, everyone sat on their hands the first 1-2 years he was in office. Bush was the golden boy in the media, so don't expect anything different for Obama.
"fox will cover every event"...yeah and lie and say no one else did. Even when the facts beg to differ
More BS from Wingnut Nation. Nobody is listening to fools.
2:31 - You want to see an example? Turn fnc on any time of the day and you should be able to see it pretty clearly.

2:31, Joe did not post my reply (maybe because I had links?) but I referred you to two specific stories on foxnews website from just yesterday. Claims of "US paying to keep tyrants safe" and "Obama broadsides Isreal", key headlines create to incite people but do not put the facts into context at all.
And yes, tune in during "fox and friends" in the morning all the way to Hannity at night. Nothing but sensationalism and bashing.
But, I have no problem. It's their network. Let them go out and make money how they see fit. My point is, if you are going to bash media bias, bash it on all sides not just the side that you disagree with.
Every time I hear a progressive dumba$$ complain abotu FOX they use platitudes and rhetoric.
Never can quote examples or proof of bias.
Quit you whining progressives, you and your cronies in washington are being exposed by FOX, the only network that tells the truth!
3:28 Do you watch FOX ? They criticized Bush when it was justified not just a crazy not stop hit job from your media nut jobs FOX is truly fair and balanced none of the others are. What drives kooks like you crazy is they have a conservative and a progressive socialist argue the issue's and this exposes how weak the progressive arguments are and it drives you crazy. short drive.
Where's the protest at WBOC? You know, the station that forwarded email to flag@whitehouse.gov without notifying the sender(s).
7:37 I'm with you tell me and I'll be there.
Fox news drives the Socialists crazy. You know reporting both sides of the story and letting you make up your own mind. I guess they're used to having it made up for them by the fringe media !
Fox not biased? Well they do have some cute news bunnies though
5:51, I gave examples, look them up.
6:00pm, B$. Fox does the hit job an Obama all day. The man blows his knows on Chinese toilet paper and he must be in cohutes with Bejing. They man have ran 1 or 2 stories when the other media outlets were charging hard at Bush, but nothing like Hannity's so called Obama special. And just like some networks have a ton of liberal talking heads, Fox has all conserv. talking heads.
Again, not bashing fox, just saying attack media bias whereever it lies (pun intended).
I'm independent. My allegiance is with the truth. It's the left and righ idealogues that only see the truth when its convenient
