"AngryRenter.com [3] looks a bit like a digital ransom note, with irregular fonts, exclamation points and big red arrows -- all emphasizing prudent renters' outrage over a proposed government bailout for irresponsible homeowners," writes Michael M. Phillips. In fact, however, "the people behind AngryRenter.com are certainly not renters. Though it purports to be a spontaneous uprising, AngryRenter.com is actually a product of an inside-the-Beltway conservative advocacy organization led by Dick Armey [4], the former House majority leader, and publishing magnate Steve Forbes [5], a fellow Republican. It's a fake grass-roots effort -- what politicos call an AstroTurf [6] campaign -- that provides a window into the sleight-of-hand ways of Washington."
