Right, So Why Do You Keep Wasting Our Time With This?

OK, let's get this straight. The corporate media spends months blowing the "tea party" into a huge phenomenon, giving it nonstop/over-the-top coverage, making it the narrative of 2010. Then, the Washington Post actually does some journalism for a change and finds the Tea Party's scope is "limited," that the "disparate groups" "do little to engage in the political process," and that "Seventy percent of the grass-roots groups said they have not participated in any political campaigning this year." So, why is the corporate media wasting our time with this? Any answers?
