Huffingtonpost: Media attendees at Rep. Doug LaMalfa's (R-Calif.) first town hall were left with a head-scratcher.
The Redding Record-Searchlight reported late Monday that a Tea Party group instituted a blackout during the scheduled Q&A section of LaMalfa's appearance. The paper claims that it was also asked to refrain from tweeting his comments, or face a potential ban from future events.
KRCR-TV adds that the following ground rules were set by a Tea Party organizer before LaMalfa's event: no filming of the congressman's introduction or the Q&A session, as well as a request for the TV station to exit before that latter portion of the event began.
It's come down to this. The leading edge of the GOP is so toxic, so revolting, so off putting, that they can't even let people hear what they're saying.
