No, a special interest group can not be too influencial, by definition they lack the political means; as their motives are usually self-orientated and they are out of touch with political parties.

The media can however create sensationalist reactions to specialist group campaigns, which can blow issues way out of proportion.

It is this influence from the media can create problems for a democratic government.
Special Interest Groups, as we all know, have a great deal of influence in politics by way of elaborate gifts and spreading money around to our congress, or supporting a present uncooperative members rivals at election time.
