As Many As Two Million In D.C., But State Controlled Media Says "Tens of Thousands"
TheCypressTimes.com ^ | 09/14/2009 | Gary P.

You know, journalism died a long time ago, so I guess this shouldn’t even surprise anyone that the liberal state controlled media, who are basically stenographers for the Obama administration, would under report this event by oh, almost two million!

What grew out of a simple love for our nation, and inspiration from Fox News’ Glenn Beck, has turned into a serious movement that has been gaining steam since the concept was first announced by Glenn on his Fox News show in March of this year.

Perhaps the MSM will better appreciate the number of Americans who attended when they go home and vote in 2010.

I find it amazing that the foreign press is reporting up to two million patriots and the USA msm reports tens of thousands. Anyone looking at the over head pictures can clearly see who is correct.

This same movement should serve as a declaration of war against the liberal propaganda machine. It’s time to initiate full-scale boycotts and protests against those tools.

Mind linking these foreign press people reporting that? The only one I know of that did changed the number to say up to a million.

The state-run media and its bosses in the DNC have to use the low numbers for comfort and to shield themselves from the reality of what will likely occur in 2010.

Correct. Finally found the article. Yesterday “up to two million” now says one million.
Same story. Still way more than the US press at “tens of thousands”.

I’ve been boycotting the MSM for a while now. It’s amazing how little I miss false information.

Public Trust in Media Accuracy & Fairness Plunges, Liberal v Conservative Bias Gap at 28 Points
NewsBusters ^ | September 14, 2009 | Brent Baker

Posted on Monday, September 14, 2009 6:22:15 AM by Zakeet

“The public’s assessment of the accuracy of news stories is now at its lowest level in more than two decades of Pew Research surveys,” a new poll from the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press, embargoed for release at 11 PM EDT Sunday night, discovered.

The survey, of 1,506 adults conducted in late July, found “nearly three-quarters (74%) say news organizations tend to favor one side in dealing with political and social issues,” up 21 points from 53 percent 24 years ago, “while just 18% say they deal fairly with all sides.” The percent who perceive the media as liberal versus conservative remains very lopsided, though the difference has increased by 7 points — from 40 percent vs. 19 percent in 1985 to 50 percent vs. 22 percent now, a 28 point split.
