From The Washington Examiner: As Breitbart’s Joel Pollack investigates,
both The Wall Street Journal and Politico reported that President
Obama’s Saturday rally in Milwaukee, Wisconsin drew a crowd of 18,000
supporters.
That’s at least a bit odd, since the Milwaukee Journal Sentinal reported that the President was speaking at a 5,000-seat arena
. The report added that “thousands more who sat in bleachers and stood
on the pavement,” but made no mention of the abnormally large 18,000
estimate.
But where did national reporters get their numbers? Probably from the
White House pool report, which reported that an Obama campaign official
told the pooler that Democratic Mayor Tom Barrett said that the crowd
was 18,000....
Obama spoke to a large crowd in an amphitheater. O campaign official
said Mayor Barrett said crowd was 18,000. Crowd was enthusiastic, even
as rain started to come down and the wind picked up. POTUS wrapped up
his remarks at about 5:47 p.m. Motorcade departed event site at 6 p.m.
headed to airport. http://washingtonexaminer.com/democratic-mayor-tom-barrett-was-source-for-inflated-obama-crowd-numbers-in-wisconsin/article/2508900#.UGEHUa48VXs
No wonder Tom Barrett is a 7 time loser, he can't even count. And the lap dog media just lapped it up.
