Thanks for proving my point. Unfortunately, it seems to be a concept that eludes HitmanNY. I'm only making a reference to "coverage" of the liberal press. I stated attendance facts, not the opinions of those who did or did not join the protests. I was attempting to show how completely unbalanced the press coverage was. Your internet search proves my point.

Thanks !!
