"That's what you guys should be writing and covering," new White House press secretary Sean Spicer angrily lectured reporters on Saturday during his first remarks from the podium of the press briefing room.
He was referring to the delay in Senate confirmation for President Donald Trump's pick to lead the CIA, Congressman Mike Pompeo, but the comment came after a long digression about how many people had shown up to watch Trump be sworn in as president.
"This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period," Spicer said, contradicting all available data.
Aerial photos have indicated that former president Barack Obama's first inauguration attracted a much larger crowd. Nielsen ratings show that Obama also had a bigger television audience.
Spicer said, without any evidence, that some photos were "intentionally framed" to downplay Trump's crowd.

The party is over for the ENEMEDIA
Behave or beware
The photos the MSN used were taken hours before the actual inauguration, i know because i saw the real ones during the swearing in ceremony and as far back as you could see it was packed, except the white contrasted much more this time.
...not to worry, it’s play off time...
The Ministry of Propaganda completely buried the largest demonstration DC has ever seen that happened on 9/12/2009.
Try to find pictures, it’s very difficult.
There is one in particular that I can’t find, the one taken from the Capitol looking out at the crowd.
It has been scrubbed from the internet.
Actually, it was on FOX tonight that the picture CNN was using was taken earlier in the day (for Trump), while it was much later in the day (for Obama).
FAKE NEWS AGAIN!
Yeah I’m covered tomorrow from 3pm on :)
If you lie, you will be exposed. Not in a book that comes out in a few years, but on the spot. The same day. Maybe the same hour. Maybe immediately.
It wasn’t just CNN pulling this crap.
No mention of the protesters closing down entry points, and intimidating people who wanted to attend. That would tend to drive attendance down.
Original comparison pics were put out by the National Parks on their twitter account, which Trump shut down. Love that he isn’t taking flak from them. Left is whining, but truth will out. Crowd pic was from early in the day. Liars will be outed.
There was threats of violence for weeks. Media happily spread them.
you poor boy. I don’t think its jims fault. I think it was Putin. it must be Putin’s fault according to Hillary Clinton if something happens with computers its the Russians doing it to manipulate the American people. so you can blame the Russian for having to speak to your wife.
Plus people attending Trump’s ceremony had to take time off work. ObaMao’s, not so much.
Which Fox News Channel show was this on? What time? I knew that's what CNN tried to pull, but were they really that sleazy and clumsy?
