9/12 Was Gigantic
The lamestream media told you:
As many as ten thousand people demonstrated at the U.S. capitol in a loose knit organization of various right-wing coalitions and talk show hosts, including the controversial figure Glenn Beck.
The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that:
I didn't report on this last time because I hadn't gathered satisfactory accounts of how many people attended by press time. Now I find there are none. This website paints a picture totally different from the play-it-down, head-in-the-sand reporting most of America got whitewashed with: http://www.lookingattheleft.
I still don't have what I would consider reliable numbers, is that amazing or what? I can't even find an example of a similar body-count blackout. But it looks like the rumors of a million people may not be too large an estimate. Far left ABC TV put it at about 60K, The London Daily Mail said 2 million, and WorldNetDaily put it at a million. Images of D.C. with wall-to-wall people were avoided by the networks. C-SPAN has crowd shots that are stunning, and extended coverage that shows how much the lamestream suppressed: http://tinyurl.com/l8u3eb. WorldNetDaily did a good job on images: http://tinyurl.com/oc84v8
Shame on authorities and everyone else trying to suppress the magnitude of this uprising of peaceful, diverse, concerned Americans. CNN, stung by FOX's constant badgering for not covering the event, began running trailers saying, "Yes we did cover it, FOX is wrong!" but not one of their film shots shows the massive crowds -- even in this apologetic excuse of theirs.
The Washington Post, which needed seven writers to tell the story, did a fair job of conveying the breadth of sentiment among the marchers. However, they seeded the story with editorializing and doubts as to whether the marchers represent anything other than an extremist fringe who don't reflect sentiments across the country, or voters. http://tinyurl.com/paettc
Glenn Beck's Common Sense, the man's third NY Times best selling book, has been number one on the Times list for weeks, but why treat him as credible or culturally significant just because he spoke and a million people marched on Washington.
