C-SPAN Uses 8/28 Crowd Shot for ‘One Nation’ Promo

In promoting its coverage of Saturday’s “One Nation” rally in Washington, D.C., C-SPAN’s website offered visitors a peak at what the rally looked like on the ground along the National Mall. But, as Gateway Pundit points out, the image they use to advertise the “One Nation Working Together” rally is actually a cropped Reuters photo taken on August 28 during the “Restoring Honor” rally hosted by Glenn Beck, seen here:

C-Span now joining the fray as they use MSNBC/NYTimes/WashPost tactics by abandoning any objectivity and instead opt to shape the news to suit their Liberal agenda.

So much for Brian Lamb and C-Span's stated goal of "striving for neutrality and a lack of bias in public affairs programming".

Yet more concrete evidence of the absolute corruption of journ-o-lists. They are determined propaganda activists for the left.

That’s amazing. I watched for a little while and one of the hosts, right after Ed left, announced to the crowd that they had satellite photos that showed they had more people than Beck.

[Nasher]

Thanks 40, was initially thinking along the lines of simplifying the post but the image does make for "one stop shopping". :)

I'm figuring that C-Span thought that the Beck image would not only cover for the sparse crowds but also convey the false notion that today's crowd wasn't made up of a bunch of Commie lovin' Kooks.

Unfortunately for them, they got caught. Next stop for this story, "Fox News Watch".

[Nasher]

What’s the problem? They look exactly alike./s

[South40]

De nada.

I have to say the the obvious MILLIONS of people wearing camo in the first photo is obvious proof that the gun toting pro America crowd is supporting the communist agenda.

BTTT

Thanks pliney. A picture is worth a thousand words.

Love the name "Communist rally".

If it was in the leftist media to tell the truth they'd call it just that. But it's not and so they won't.

I don't dare click on the link but a Google search revealed the HuffPo is billing it as "Tens of thousands". Clearly it was not so the lies have already begun.

[plinyelder]

It's in the way they say these things that allow them to fall back later.

EX: ".. announced to the crowd that they had satellite photos that showed they had more people than Beck".

The fall-back RAT answer would be something like .. "We were saying that there were satellite photos that showed .. There were more people at Beck's 8/28 rally than just Glenn Beck".

See how that works? 8)

Let’s face it. We are in a war with the liberal power structure of this country. The government, the media and externally financed PACs. They don’t even bother to show the faintest hint of truth. They mislead, they obfuscate they ‘triangulate’. Now they’re just plain lying in order to feed the empty minds of the trash that vote for them or for their power mad schemes.

[Lazamataz]

Lying outright is all they can do these days.

If the JournOList Media tell me it's sunny, I count on rain.

Everything they report can be inverted 180 degrees, to get to the truth.

Too kind.

They simply lie, all the time, about everything.

[Gaffer]

Hey, that could be a good 'news' slogan:

[CBS,ABC,NBC,NPR, et al]

All lies, All the time

[Lazamataz]

Make it so.
