stupid fake news... like inauguration attendance. Who will care about these numbers or crowds tomorrow besides the prez in his inside world? Your description sounds pretty accurate to me! Keenan seriously believes that there are absolutely no "fake news" stories coming from liberal sources. Some people live in a bubble.
the fake news industry has been running for at least 40 years, sorry to say... it's has just switched subject matter. It's just like the trash magazines at the grocery store, but actually trying to influence public opinion and not titillate the masses.

LOL. You completely missed green's point. In this post-truth era, there are no longer objective facts or truth. Instead, there are liberal and conservative facts. To conservatives like you, anything from a liberal is fake news by definition.
You also like to put words in my mouth. I simply asked for examples.

The problem with using the first pic is that it is taken from a completely different viewpoint and elevation, and the opposite side of the mall, so it is comparing apples to oranges. The first pic shows the thickest crowed near the capitol. It doesn't show the empty spaces closer to the Washington Monument because is too far away and the view is blocked.
Let's at least agree that it is pointless trying to compare pics unless they are taken from the exact same direction, elevation, and angles.

I plead guilty to putting words in your mouth. Do you think that there are any fake news stories coming from liberal sources?

I got what you said. I don't know where you got the idea that Conservatives are considered a mob.
The EC worked exactly the way it was supposed to whereby the states get equal representation, and the vote is not decided by 1 or 2 states based on popular vote.

If you consider the States collectively as a mob, then yeah … It is the American mob.
What happened this weekend across the country was a useless mob. They had no Idea why they were out there other than someone told them to go out and socialize.

Right. So you just change word definitions at your whim and convenience to fit your narrative. So typical of you...

You interjected that point about Madison and the EC.

That is not the only thing he lacks, but yes, you are quite right. I concluded after my first few encounters with smokey that it is pointless...

Only because you filter out what you don't want to know.

In support of your statement, a collective of signs on display grossly points out the confusing, profane, and downright stupid reasons why this group ever assembled in the first place! http://www.slate.com/blogs/xx_factor/2017/01/21/the_best_protest_signs_from_the_women_s_march_on_washington.html
