"Tens of Thousands"

[Stinky The Clown]

That is the coordinated, officially approved script.

All the media, including your local eleven o'clock nooz beat reporters, will be using that phrase.

"Tens of Thousands"

You'll have to look quick to see it, though. Yahoo Nooz has already started to bury the story. MSNBC has it waaaaaay down their front page.

1. CNN buried it entirely, Fox was simply saying "thousands" earlier

CBC pegged the crowd at "more than 200,000."

2. Last report I saw was hundreds of thousand...

3. I believe NBC nightly news said 200,000

4. They *have* to dismiss it - we just got back..... MASSIVE

I could tell it was big (compared to the anti-war march in October 2002) but when the
Myth Busters did the "Wave" thing that was when I realized how HUGE the crowd was.

My buddy was 100 feet from us and I knew it but there was no way to get to him.

I spoke with people who drove in from Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Wisconsin

WISCONSIN

Great event. There were, of course, people trying to crowd in too much. The density was amazing- we and some people around us had spaced out room for ourselves but the people were like water they poured into any and every opening.

Amazing. Great show as shows go too. Doing two hours (after The Roots and John Legend started things off) of comedy with no breaks is a LOT of writing and takes a lot of stamina-the show got better as it went on which is very tough to do.

5. cnn calls it a 'cheering throng' and gives no numbers....

6. 300 thousand plus....MASSIVE....

7. Faux in DC 10 pm news: "tens of thousands"

The reporter was incredulous that someone had come from Alaska, and found some of the signs baffling. The final sign shown was "Think outside the Fox".

8. They did the same thing to the One Nation Rally

I believe today was big then One Nation and One Nation was bigger then Beck's.
Let hope their polls number are just as screwed-up

10. Well, naturally . . .

. . . in the RTRSoF media parodies, 95% of the content came from Fox "News" and CNN.

The other 5% was false equivalency footage from Keith Olbermann and Ed Schultz, so guaranteed MSNBC will bury it.

11. The chuckleheads would say "hundreds" if they thought it would fly.

I've been at many rallies at the mall. This was huge!
