Looks OK to me.

there WAS NOT that many protesters, I watched during the day to see the GOE and never saw a picture like that!
Bump
We need to expose these idiots for their lies
Probably not "doctored" such as adding more people but simply cropped to give a desired look.
There are American flags right-side up in the picture, and apparently dung-free. It must be doctored.
It looks like a long lens photo. They tend to increase the density of a crowd making it appear tightly packed.
Looks like a bunch of green guys in the middle.
Looks real to me. A large group of America hating morons. Luckily, thanks to photography, these unemployed terrorist lovers will be documented as such.

I think it does. Look at the orange signs, and how they reappear. I know teenagers who could do this with Photoshop. Copy and paste the element into a file several times.
Verdict: Doctored!
I go with the "angle," not doctoring per se. When don't have that many folk you shoot close to street level to make it look big. When you have a gazillion folk, you shoot from above.
Is this doctored? How about, is this Deaned?
Shot from a low angle with a very long telephoto lens. That technique compresses the depth of field and "stacks up" crowds. You can tell that this is what's going on from close examination of the first few rows. They look about 10 feet apart. But once you get past them, only a "sea of signs" is visible. 1,000 people perhaps? You can almost count the signs - perhaps much fewer are there. I'd presume that each one has a sign.
If the crowd was larger, a higher angle would have been used for the shot.
Looks like hundreds of "little people", holding identical yellow signs. You can't see the people, just the signs.
Yeah, it's doctored.
Looks OK to me.
There should be tens of thousands since they bused them in from all over the country. That has to cost. I wonder who paid?
