Was the headline changed at the source? Most of these things are generated by automatic feeds, no person actually programs them in, they appear on Google and their news threads based on what is fed to them and link popularity. IF this article was never posted as ‘hundreds’ then it may be interesting to check, however, if it was first posted as hundreds when it hit the wire, the modified by editors to ‘thousands’ (just like you can change a blog post), there isn’t anything here.. Needs more research before knee jerking..
I think things have changed. I think it is blatently obvious the MSM have a bone to pick with Palin and go out of their way to try to taint and smear her. But this go round... the media will lose their battle because they are no longer trusted.The gig is up. People don’t watch or read their garbage.

Google were huge contributors to Obama’s campaign. Not a surprise they would mess around with the headline. Over 10,000 came to see Sarah actually
Believe it or not there is more than one headline editor in the world of journalism.
Good catch.

The MSM can try to downplay Palin’s popularity, but crowds of thousands are composed of individuals, each of whom is moved by Palin’s message and her charisma. No doubt everyone who loves Palin also despises the MSM, so their propaganda will be more likely to have an inverse effect on their opinion.
No surprise. Google Sarah Palin last fall, 28 plus million hits,two months ago 16.5 million, tonight it is 7.5 million.
BUMP for excellence in freeping.
Just as I don’t go to MSNBC for my News, I don’t go to Google for my web brousing. BING.com is ny choice
Good catch! Send it to Glenn perhaps he would spend some time talking this up! There are many ‘out there’ who aren’t aware - and it may help in future ‘town hall meetings, TP rally’s, etc.
I’ve complained numerous times to the web master at Fox News that Googleadservices has a 10 second delay whenever one of their top stories is accessed. According to my computer logs Googleadservices always has this delay on their site. Now whether it’s deliberate or not, I can’t say. BTW-I use Firefox but I notice it never happens when I’m using Google’s proprietary web browser Google Chrome.
When I logged onto the net using Verizon one of the headlines at the Verizon home page was ‘ Hundreds ‘ rather than thousands.
That raised an eyebrow as I would have though thousands would show up. But, what do I know, I was not there and do not know anyone who was.
Google gets on my last nerve. They arbitrarily restrict sites THEY don’t like and redirect your browser to stupid searches that have one or more of the site’s words in them. I have to grrr, and it ticks me off no end.
But they will let you access all the jihadi freakin’ sites in the world.
Google “Thousands cheer Palin” in quotes and see if “Hundreds cheers Palin” comes up 2nd as the headline from Yahoo News..
Whilst “Hundreds cheer Palin” shows zero hits on “Thousands..”.
Thanks for posting. They need to be called on it.
