NY Times Admits It Lied About Crowd Size at Nashville Trump Rally, Corrects After POTUS Calls Them Out (Full Title)
NASHVILLE, Tennessee–The New York Times has admitted that it lied about the size of the crowd at the Trump rally held in Nashville on Tuesday night, and changed their crowd estimate after the president called them out on Twitter. In their original story on the Trump rally, the Times claimed the crowd size was only 1,000–a number that everyone in attendance Tuesday night knew was a misrepresentation of the much larger crowd at the Municipal Auditorium to listen to President Trump speak about his support for Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN-07) and her 2018 campaign for the U.S. Senate seat held by retiring Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN).
Breitbart News was at the rally and estimated the crowd size to be more than 8,000.
Wednesday morning, President Trump called the Times out for their inaccurate crowd size reporting.
“The Failing and Corrupt @nytimes estimated the crowd last night at ‘1000 people,’ when in fact it was many times that number – and the arena was rockin’. This is the way they demean and disparage,” he tweeted.
“They are very dishonest people who don’t ‘get’, me, and never did!” he added in the tweet.
After the presidential broadside, the Washington Times reported that the New York Times “corrected” their crowd estimate later on Wednesday:
The New York Times issued a correction Wednesday about the crowd size at President Trump’s rally after the president challenged the paper’s mistake, acknowledging the audience in Nashville, Tennessee, was more than five times larger than The Times initially reported.

New York Times: “All the #FakeNews that Fits, They Print”
Well bless it’s heart. Of course it did.
What did they do revise it to 500?
They still can’t get it through their thick heads that Trump will call them on their lies. They are so used to conservatives rolling over like the submissive dogs that most of them are.
.
Let us know if you should ever speak the truth, OK?
.
Mistakes happen but how in the world do you mistake 5,500 people for 1,000? That’s so far off that it looks less like an accident and more like one of two things a) complete incompetence or b) malign intent...you be the judge...
Just continuing this person's tradition, nothing more or less.
Why would they do that?
“Everything about socialism is sham and affectation.” - 23.11; Ch23 Evil; Economic Harmonies; Frederic Bastiat
I remember when Trump had a rally in Pensacola. The place was absolutely packed. The media showed footage taken something like hours before it began, purposely misleading everyone.
Trump did force them to correct it.
They’ve started a “new category” of Lie. We now have the “Admitted Lie!”
Reminds me of how they desperately tried to make Her Heinous’ rallies appear larger than they actually were.
All the news that is fit to print for the idiot masses.
Little Pinch hates President Trump. He always has and always will.
Methinks it’s penis envy.

That’s what newspapers say when they have a small penis.
“The Times regrets ... being publicly shamed into reporting the truth!”
Subversive traitors.
This kind of reporting is exactly what gave Hillary the delusion that she could win the presidency. While it's meant to depress the Right, all it accomplishes is to make them mad.
They lie to themselves. It’s why they have to lie about their readership size. Hillary couldn’t draw flys. While DJT did draw HUGE crowds and is still doing it. Let’s see who said.”methinks they doth protest too much” ? SIUBC.
