I'm told there were 2 million patriots on motorcycles around Washington DC yesterday.
Unusually for me I watched several "news" programs in the hope of seeing any coverage of this event.
There was no, none, nada bit of coverage of any such event.
Therefore, it never happened.

At least as far as the MSM, the LIVs and Joe Six-Pack are concerned.

Maybe all the reporters were taking a shower.

They were too busy trying to find the million muslim no-shows.

I just posted an invite for bikers to give us an account.
I expected the LSM to not report, but I DID expect at least, traffic cams like at Beck's rally that showed hours of flowing people.

The Blaze had it. Several cameras showed motorcycles all over our district of corruption. The number I heard was 1,100,000 motorcycles. The million muslem march was listed as 24. I can't get the liberal news media as my TV signals have been taken away by the boverment. Therefore CNN no longer exists. What are the rest of the alphabet identifiers supposed to be?
Even D.C. does not exist for me.

On the plus side, I didn’t see that reported on either.

Some time after 7AM Central, FOX NEWS did a story that claimed “several thousand” bikers showed up “even though they were denied a permit”. They then commented that the two million rally that was given a permit “only had a few show up” while showing a picture of a speaker on a stage speaking to a crowd of 4(?) people.

Nope - they were covering the 25 Mussie sociopaths that showed up.

Yep. For the vast majority of TV viewers, even that fraction that watches the “real” news on ABCCNNMSNBCPBSFOX and Al Jazzera, this event simply never happened.

There’s a thread posted by a FReeper with photos who was there and he asked the same question...........
To: gnarledmaw
Ah! “Several thousand”? I was expecting claims of “Dozens”.

Oh well. Screw the media.
Even if those whose lives revolve around the television set didn’t see it, conservatives saw it. And it gave them a much-needed JOLT.
That will have much more fundamental impact than a little PR.

That’s because they couldn’t find them.

There was another FReeper who got excoriated for suggesting that they actually get off the Beltway and go into DC proper and grid-lock the whole place down during rush hour.
That might have gotten a 10 second mention on the left coast, between the school bake sale and the house fire...

... but I DID expect at least, traffic cams like at Beck's rally that showed hours of flowing people. Perhaps the bikers were prevented from entering downtown D.C. areas with high densities of traffic cams, due to the National Park Service not giving biker leadership permits to do so.
I'm not familiar with the details.
To: Blueflag
I didn’t see any tv coverage of either event.
