See I don't even know why people care. Everyone latched on that phrase and keep belaboring it. Wonder how many hours were spent totally talking about how many people at the inauguration. Why not talk about other stuff, cabinet picks, TPP, aid cancellation, Federal hiring freeze except such and such, etc.
This is like the media equivalent of bike shedding. Other stuff is complicated so they latched on to that phrase...
- Symbiote 10y agoPeople care because the White House was seen to be lying in one of the first statements made to the press. If, instead, they'd just said n-thousand people attended, and made some comment about bad weather, the attention would have moved on to the next thing a lot sooner.
- rdtsc 10y agoWell when wasn't the White House lying :-). I guess I've come to expect very little from govt officials. It still seems like bike shedding to me
