The 'Occupy Wall Street' movement has found a good friend in the national media. By creatively corralling the unsavory protestors' hodgepodge of left-wing grievances into a momentary narrative, they've lent them attention and credibility they wouldn't have otherwise had. Rather than fizzling out under its own shallowness, the increased exposure has inspired similar, smaller protests around the country and the liberal media is pretty happy about that. Why? The answer is simple: Tea Party envy.
