Michael Calderone recapsan amusing spat between MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann and Mediaite.com, after the gossipy website ran an item about the Dallas Tea Party’s video knocking MSNBC for its all-white line-up of hosts. The headline is Olbermann’s criticism of Dan Abrams; the part that interests me is just how much attention the Dallas Tea Party — one of the more media-savvy local groups in the movement — got for a simple and apples-and-oranges video. I think the Atlantic’s John Hudson offered the strangest takeon the video:
“„However often the left makes the charge, the right is quick to rebut that the Democratic leadership–let alone the MSNBC line-up–are hardly bastions of racial diversity.
In case you’ve forgotten, the Democratic Party is led by this guy. I don’t think it matters, but suggesting that the Tea Party movement is not, like the Republican Party, less racially diverse than America as a whole, should really not be controversial.
