Here's the pic that the MSM has been showing as "proof" that Obama's inauguration crowd was bigger.  Looks pretty clear cut.  But wait... Trumps pic was taken 24 minutes earlier but was it really taken at 11:04 or could it have been taken at maybe 10:04?



Well, just so happens that CNN has a gigapixel image of the Inauguration here and you can pan this image around to look at the crowd in super high resolution.  Wait a minute... Somethings wrong.  Fake news!  





Trump inauguration ratings second biggest in 36 years & may be the biggest if you count online viewers

And actually, Trump could have been seen by more viewers than either Obama or Reagan. Nielsen ratings do not account for online viewing, which has grown sharply in recent years and is far more commonplace than even four years ago. CNN.com, for example, clocked 16.9 million live streams, tying with its Election Day coverage for the site’s top event (live stream tallies are typically not apples-to-apples with Nielsen’s strict methodology of counting average viewers, but are still additive). Plus, portals like YouTube, Facebook and Twitter offered live streams as well.

Coworker showed up with his scout troop.  The security line was HOURS long.  They never made it in but did other stuff in DC.  

If if anything the protesters and or threats caused more people not to go or if they did greatly delay getting in.

Lmao. How's anyone trying to defend this?  We all watched it, the mall was half empty the whole time. End of.

Trump's spokesperson is lying, it wasn't the biggest crowd at an inauguration.

We should not allow alternate "facts" that are obviously false.

NPS has a timelapse from the Washington Monument.  The crowds were smaller; don't think there's anyway around that.  The vantage point of the CNN photo doesn't capture things as well as the overhead shot.  

Not sure why there is some expectation that each successive inauguration should be bigger than the last, but whatever.  The media pushed it because they knew it would get under the President's skin ... and it did.  All you gotta do is smile, and know that your inauguration had better attendance than Hillary Clinton's.

You will have to keep posting it till you admit that the original pic and story was used by the MSM to try and show that less people showed up then actually did...in other words..the MSM was reporting fake news....that they created...

The fact that the MSM was even pushing the story line of "When it comes to Trump's inauguration Obama had the bigger crowd" shows their liberal bias and they turned journalism into a political attack.  When Obama was sworn did the media praise Republicans for anything?  No.  So why are they talking about how great Obama was on Trump's day?  When the media starts reporting facts instead of political attacks, then we can have a conversation about how they aren't biased.

Stupid liberal propaganda is stupid.

What matters is the crowd of voters in November of 2016 and the ones who will be wearing red ties in the houses of congress.

The liberals are grasping for anything to rally their base as the nation becomes more and more conservative - thousands of seats have been lost during the Obaman years - that fuck-face did more damage to the nation and to the democratic party than has been done by all the liberals before him. The rallies for something Trump said 11-years ago compared to those for what Bill Clinton actually did in the Oral Office speak to the authenticity of the women's right's groups. Pure vapid bull-shit. All of them. Nothing but lies come from the liberal's mouths - pure deception as part of a widely coordinated propaganda campaign.

I believe the crowd was smaller, due to the fact that many supporters either

had to work

Trumps inauguration was closed and fenced off, and the grass was covered for the fist time. Tickets were required to get in which puts a cap on attendance. FBHO inauguration was open for anyone to walk in. Look at photos of the people at each inauguration and how they left the area after it was over.
