This weekend, Freedomworks held their FreePAC conference with the theme “Restoring Freedom.” It occurred in conjunction with Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Love” rally, held last night at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Approx 70,000 in cowboy stadium, 35,000 serving others.
One mil in food donations.#RestoringLove is trending worldwide. Will media ignore?— LibertyGirl NoVa (@LibertyGirlNoVa) July 29, 2012
Dinosaur Media spotted @ #RestoringLove. But will they cover anything? http://t.co/LYdaXCEJ

Nope. According to the media, it didn’t even exist. Deafening silence! If anyone is still unconvinced that the media is biased, take a gander at this round-up of tweets and photos from the event. This isn’t news-worthy?

Huh. Doesn’t fit that whole “war on women” false narrative, does it? That is part of the reason why the media ignored it. Showing strong, successful, empowered and freedom-loving dames? That does not suit one bit!
this is WAY better than the Olympics #RestoringLove http://t.co/k9bByaRx

Thousands of 'heartless' conservatives in Dallas for Day of Service. #RestoringLove #winning http://t.co/9SeDVJM0

And right there is another reason. It’s kind of hard to paint Tea Party members as nefarious and evil when they are gathering together in love, and in service to their country and fellow man.
It also wouldn’t suit to let the “unwashed masses” hear CrimeThink quotes like these:
'All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.' Edmund Burke #restoringlove #commonsense #lnyhnt #tcot

Those in attendance are energized, fired up and ready to go!
My phone died at the stadium last night so I couldn't say how amazing #RestoringLove was! It was fantastic. Feeling energized and encouraged

They know the media is trying to ignore them, but that doesn’t matter. Their faith is restored and they won’t be silenced.
Judging by the pictures, it seems the media underestimated this "little" #RestoringLove event.
