Or, by actually being a small crowd like at the last US inauguration.
Exactly. Some photographers shot from a few rows in trying to make it look like they were in the midst of a huge crowd, but the aerial photographs showed the truth: Very few people cared enough to attend the inauguration. This time, the "alternative facts" crew is latching onto a photo taken from a few rows in and saying, "See? The people in front of the photographer are the only people there!" And yet, once again, the aerial videos show the truth.
And it will no doubt be broadcast worldwide throughout the day. And the world will laugh at Donald Trump...again. Works for me.
That's your prerogative. I feel that taking satisfaction in such things is the sign of a very unstable and unhappy person. But by all means enjoy your day watching the world laugh at Trump. What a worthy endeavor.
The Sun is a right-wing rag in the U.K. The photographer took a pic a few rows in. NPR took an aerial video showing the whole crowd. I'm cracking up that people don't understand that one can always make a crowd look smaller by showing only a small part of it.
No, that crowd was huge, very very larg crowd, I saw it live on Fox News when they were talking about. I don't watch Fox but I was curious if they were covering this massive crowd, and they did.

Reuters said it was 1000 people. So regardless of what any clever photograph angles show, a reputable news source says it's 1000 people. Make of that what you will! I'm not sure what the value is in arguing over it.
