The liberal media sees TEA party conservatives as ignorant, irrational, irresponsible domestic terrorists. The liberal media uses the term “terrorists” because the TEA party’s fiscal agenda features cuts in almost all social welfare areas that the Obama administration has worked hard to put in place. Left leaning sources report the Tea Party as having popularity but lacks unity and a common direction. They think the Tea Party focuses on the benefits for their party not necessarily the benefits for the whole country. They believe the tea party ignores the middle and lower class, and focuses on how to benefit exclusively wealthy republicans. They also compare the TEA party to a teenager controlling the family budget (in regards to their endeavors to control government spending). The liberal media advocates government control in society and business and the TEA party’s sole purpose is to move America towards a more free market, state-controlled economic situation and this is seen as selfishness. The liberal media believes this will ruin American society, that the TEA party is willing to risk bringing down the whole country in the service of their anti-tax ideology.*I think this is good how it is because it hits all the main points and shows the lest leaning media view clearly. It's also easy to follow and has just enough information to get the point accross*

This pretty much sums up the left leaning media of the tea party.
