It is a rather small issue. The dishonesty of the media regarding crowd sizes is well established. There are many more pressing things to talk about.
Trump’s running circles around them.
SPOT ON AND THEN SOME!

My daughter taped it.
I saw it reported somewhere that the tallies of the 5 largest livestream came to 21 million.
No, there aren’t. There are more pressing things TO DO.
You’re still not getting it. Talking about x while DOING y keeps the Alinskyite focus off of Y and onto x.
” First, this is unprovable, because no one knows how many people were viewing this on a non-TV screen—Facebook, a phone, iPads, etc. Any REASONABLE person would assume that with the 31 million confirmed watching on TV, and the million present at the event, at last 10 million more watched on alternative media, this was easily the most watched inauguration ever. Of course, the drivebys/fake news media are not reasonable.”
Actually, we can know EXACTLY how many people were watching it with these methods.
Those figures, however, will be given out by Youtube, Google and MSN/Bing. They will be given to the AP and Reuters,
And you can clearly see where data goes to die.
CNN’s Jeff “There’s a Zucker Born Every Minute” Zucker threatened Trump by saying Trump isn’t aware that only one English language news channel is available throughout the rest of the world and it is “us”.
Ignoring for the moment the huge explosion in internet access and alternate media, Zucker’s words could be seen to say “If you don’t stop calling out our lies, we’re going to keep lying for Putin, China, Japan, Iran, etc. and all the world to hear.”
In other words, truth is not as important to a news channel president as spinning events to characterize Trump as Hitler, Stalin, etc. Got that? Is getting back at Trump worth further discrediting themselves over? I guess so, to hear Zucker speak.
Wonder when the press will realize they are part of the swamp Trump promised to drain.
Rule of thumb, if the media is reporting a negative story on Trump (when are they ever positive ?), it’s a lie until proven otherwise.
Exactly right, every small lie called out. After a year or so, they will realize that there’s no point to lying - it just makes them look stupid. Broken window is a great example, also tagging. Combat every instance.
This is excellent analysis. Thanks for posting.
This is critical to me. I remember Dubya’s endless silence. We would defend him, as best we could, and he would say nothing or else take the Democrat side opposite us!!
I want to fight fight fight every single thing the media says until the first response we have to the media is ‘they must be lying again’.
Plus, this numbers fight took time away from those nasty women on the Mall and their potty mouths.
Someone on Fox said it was something Trump’s people focused on to dilute media attention on the women’s march.
“The “Broken Window” form of law enforcement works on journalists.”
Good analogy.
I agree with Larry. Whether the issue is big or small, call out the media. It’s long overdue.
The Left is all about death by a thousand cuts. These "small things" are part of their strategy and they will never, ever relent nor will they give one inch. Neither should President Trump. As far as I'm concerned the Left is cut from the same cloth as radical Islam. They must be destroyed down to the root.
