Fair, balanced, yet foreign: Coverage of the Tea Party Express in Michigan

An Asian (Japanese?) TV crew caught up with the Tea Party Express while they were busy liberating Michigan last month. Ironically, even though much of the report is in a foreign language, it seems to be more fair-and-balance than anything I've seen on American networks--with the exception, most of the time, of Fox News.



The network interviewed Tea Party Express Chairman Mark Williams, former Saturday Night Live performer Victoria Jackson, and a few other familiar faces from the TPX III.

Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI) and Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) get a lot of airtime too.

Hat tip to Right Michigan.

UPDATE May 4: Andrea Shea King, who was embedded with TPX III, tells me a Chinese crew produced the story.
