"Why aren't you seeing Harry Potter?" an usher said to the reporter sitting alone in the audience

That’s NOT true..I talked to people online who went to the Orange, CA theater and said it was sold out..depends on what time though

Update II by Nicole:

Here’s a nice round-up of The Undefeated tweets put together by Josh Painter over at Texans for Sarah Palin:

“MSM – Where are the ‘empty theaters’ now?”
*
How well is The Undefeated doing on its opening day? If the past hour’s Twitter traffic is any indication, not bad:

Theater manager in Phoenix reports “Only Harry Potter beating ‘The Undefeated’…

Atlanta, GA ‘The Undefeated’ is Number 1 in theater out performering ‘Transformers’…

4pm showing of ‘The Undefeated’ ends with five minute standing ovation in Atlanta!

Atlanta – 7pm showing of ‘The Undefeated’ sold out 3 hours in advance!

“The #Undefeated” 4pm showing in #OrangeCounty is packed full except for the “stiff neck seats” that nobody wants ever.

The Undefeated is Number 1 in #Atlanta #GA out performing Transformers

AMC Ahwatukee theatre mgr told me they sold so many tickets for #Undefeated that they had to move it to a bigger screen!

Undefeated sold out 7:10 and 10:04 showings in Kennesaw. #1 movie in this theater tonight!

People in the theater CHEERED when they saw Palin at the tea party rally.

Kenesaw GA 3 showings sold out!!

PalinUndefeated attitude is spreading like wild fire. Watch the Dems start eating themselves

How come nobody in the MSM is RTing that @PalinUndefeated is selling out and getting standing Os?! Aren’t they “objective” RTers?!?

Full House at Universal Cineplex Orlando, FL for ‘The Undefeated’!

MSM – Where are the “empty theaters” now?

just got back from the movie. My 3 skeptics will now be a part of Sarah’s Army.

People around me are saying, “WOW” about the frivolous ethics complaints. They didn’t know.

Houston showing is almost full except for the lower 2 rows. ;-)

Audience applauding Sarah’s inaugural address in #Undefeated in Kennesaw!

Drove 8 Hours To See The #Undefeated! Very Well Made, Exhilarating & Inspirational

Amazing! People in this theater had NO idea about ethics complaints & why she resigned! They do now!

Update II by Whitney: California Organize4Palin coordinator notes that both the 4 PM and 7 PM showings in Orange County were sold out.

This is a deliberately dishonest article-—the showing was a midnight showing last night.

[El Laton Caliente]

This was the 12:01 AM show... on the first day. Amazing, people who support Palin have jobs & stuff...

[Sarah Barracuda]

Oh WOW no wonder..Midnight show..geez who would go to a midnight show anyway. I am a huge Sarah supporter and even I would not have gone to a midnight screening..I am following someone on twitter who is in Phoenix, Arizona at the AMC theater and its SOLD OUT..not only sold out but they had to open up another screen to deal with the overflow of people

[presently no screen name]

Thanks for the good read.

[the invisib1e hand]

the more the msm stamps its feet and screams that she doesn't exist, the more she's looking like America's first woman president.

And everybody knows it.

[LA Woman3]

Is the theater off the 405?

[presently no screen name]

its SOLD OUT..not only sold out but they had to open up another screen to deal with the overflow of people

Great news~ We need to remember this because we will be told otherwise - the reason for the movie anyway.

[Recovering_Democrat]

wtf? i just don’t believe the liberal media anymore.

[VeniVidiVici]

It’s The Atlantic. The Enquirer has more believable writing.

[Bigtigermike]

Plus the Midnight showing of the UNDEFEATED wasn’t advertise - no one knew abut it.

Apparently when the movie owner had the specials Midnight showing for Harry Potter, he decided to show the other films as well, including The UNDEFEATED.

I seem to recall a similar situation a few weeks before Palin’s book came out... there was some reporter who wrote about what a huge bomb the book was proving to be. An all-out financial disaster for the publisher, etc. Went on tv, spreading this line. Obviously tryng to ‘create’ this narrative, for the willing and corrupt media to broadcast, which they dutifully did. However, they got swamped over by facts and reality, when the book proved a blockbuster.

The corruption in the media truly knows no bounds. You can’t believe a word they report.
