As I recall, at one of Clinton's State of the Union addresses during the impeachment crisis, Republican senators and congresspersons decided that they didn't want to look rude by booing, sitting on their hands, and the like, so they just didn't attend the speech.

That would have left a lot of empty seats, but Clinton and Daschle merely packed the Republican side of the house with Democrats, and as a result it appeared as if he was getting more cheers than ever before. Naturally the media liars said nothing about what was happening, but covered up for clinton.

These people have no shame. They don't play by the rules. Give them the smallest opportunity, and they will screw you.

If I had been at the concert, I would have booed with the best of them. These scum understand no language other than PUBLIC shaming that even the media are unable to cover up.

Which is exactly why booing was appropriate. The media almost never acknowledges how hated she is by a large portion of the public. With this, they still won't acknowledge it, but it was too grand of a stage for it not to have an effect on them. Before I might have believed that they didn't actually know how many people felt this way. But not now. They have to deal with this in the future, because I bet that ain't the last time that happens.
