AP Reports Imaginary Crowd as 'Largest Yet of the Obama Campaign'
Breitbart ^

Posted on 09/24/2012 5:37:23 AM PDT by Perdogg

The mainstream media is faking every number is can get away with to save President Barack Obama. Not content with weighting poll samples with absurd Democrat margins, or spinning high unemployment rates, the media is now faking crowd numbers for Obama's events. The Associated Press is the latest offender, calling a Milwaukee, Wisconsin crowd that did not exist "the largest yet of Obama's reelection campaign."

Phony crowds and phony poll numbers are all part of the Obama war plan. After they slip by with their election fraud, they will use the polls to show that the election was fair.

That's been my fear for a while. No one else seems to be commenting on this.

Don't lose heart, Scotswife ~

PSALM 37

12 The wicked plot against the righteous
and gnash their teeth at them;
13 but the Lord laughs at the wicked,
for he knows their day is coming.
14 The wicked draw the sword
and bend the bow to bring down the poor and needy,
to slay those whose ways are upright.
15 But their swords will pierce their own hearts,
and their bows will be broken.
16 Better the little that the righteous have
than the wealth of many wicked;
17 for the power of the wicked will be broken,
but the LORD upholds the righteous.

May it be soon, O Lord, may it be soon, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen ...

Awesome crowd. The media is still reporting Sarasota had a few hundred supporters and they only show pictures of people right around the stage, but 60 minutes made a mistake and showed Romney walking up to the stage in Sarasota and you could see quite a bit more of the crowd. There were at least 5,000 to 6,000 there. How big was the CO crowd? Looks huge.

This is a picture of a cemetary right? And the 18,000 people buried there are in fact Obama voters.

No, today's mainstream media machine is no different than the old Soviet propaganda machinery.

ABCNBCMSNBCNYTMTVCNNCBS and the rest of those sordid losers really do behave like a bunch of North Korean news reporters, swearing total and unwavering allegiance to their Dear Leader.

Those “virtual” supporters who could not actually be seen at the Obama rally are the same virtual voters who will appear on election day, vote for Obama, then disappear for another 4 years.

When the mainstream media calls a crowd is "the largest yet," but overestimates it by a factor of three or even four, you have a pretty good idea of how far they are willing to go to re-elect their patron saint.

It also says that all the other events were even more pathetic.

Oops, my mistake. It's Romney's crown in Denver last night.

Reminds me of some commie/CBS rally in DC. The crowd was large, thanks to union pressure, free lunches, and buses, but not close to packed, not nearly as good as the Tea Party/Glenn Beck rally a week or two earlier.

That didn't stop at least one of the "news" networks from doctoring the photo to match, or even copy crowd sections from the previous non-liberal rally at the same spot.

“...Is it that much different with NBC, CBS, ABC, NY Times and the Washington Post??...”

Oh come on...you’re REALLY comparing our free, unbiased, impartial, totally non-partisan media/press with Pravda and Isvestia, Tass, and other Soviet-controlled organs of the State?

I’m Shocked...Shocked I say...

I have a niece in the Milwaukee area. She has been to that arena. She claims that the maximum seating of that arena is only 5,000 and the pictures they saw locally had empty seats.

I believe they call the Obama campaign and ask how many showed up and that’s the number they write. I doubt it’s equal.
