Okay, now that it's happened.
Will FOX claim an overwhelming success, mistakenly showing crowds at a British rock concert from 2005 as their Boston turnout reel?
Will Olbermann smirk as the wide angle shows 160 people at an Atlanta rally while Sean Hannity simultaneously proclaims tens of thousands of Americans were there standing up for their rights?
What will tomorrow's headlines form both sides be, regarding today's event?

240 I personally attended the tea party in atlanta. Not for hannity, but more against the income tax. I will be the first to say there was a lot more than 160 people in attendance.

They might insert footage from Obama rallies so they can show huge crowds of cheering supporters,
...they'll have to airbrush out all the Obama08 signs & T-shirts tho. Do you think they'll remember to do that? :-\

Cool. How many people would you say was there?
Mine was an arbitrary example of the exaggeration we'll see on both sides. i remember fox trumpeting mccain crowds of 5000 when the local police would put the number at 900, and FOX would *accidentally* run 2000 primary footage for the event. Remember that?
I am sure MSN and crew and analyzing every word hannity says (and any numbers claimed) to compare with their own footage and official counts.
