Very misleading video. That video doesn't show the whole day.
Here is a picture showing the crowds later in the day.

That video only show earlier in the day, before people started filling it up, as indicated by the time-stamp here...

Here's a photo closer to the end, showing the crowds goes all the way to the back, almost comparable to Obama's.

>Fox News has been doing the fake/biased news thing for a long time...
It's ironic that Fox news was so biased before. But this election, Fox News did good. Fox was the only news media that actually show both sides of the story, while the rest of the news media were overwhelmingly biased against Trump.
- JohnTHaller 10y agoThe front low-angle picture is the one Trump fans use to "disprove" the story. Its angle hides the swaths of empty space that were filled during Obama's first inauguration. Not to mention that the low-angle front picture obscures the Obama 2009 crowd spilling out the sides. The picture you linked was taken earlier in the day, but is not the one used in the comparisons on news sites. That picture was taken around the time the Obama 2009 one was taken and shows Trump's crowd slightly more filled in: http://i.imgur.com/17nLdRl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/17nLdRl.jpg Obama's inauguration broke all records and Trump's didn't come close. The scary point is that Trump felt the need to lie about it. They even admitted it with their "alternative facts" line. Openly lying about things that are demonstrably false is his way of distracting from other issues.
- DefaultUserHN 10y agoYour photo showing Trump had little people actually came from 8 AM in the morning, as by the upload time-stamp here: http://imgur.com/cLiofdu http://imgur.com/cLiofdu Notice the time-stamp. The following photo show way more people: https://i.redd.it/romblz2zsxay.jpg https://i.redd.it/romblz2zsxay.jpg Here is a photo showing near back end, showing the crowds goes all the way to the back, almost comparable to Obama's. https://i.reddituploads.com/a3495b511eed42509c6f3a82b853996f?fit=max&h=1536&w=1536&s=02d97ed976b28d2805de75338613859e https://i.reddituploads.com/a3495b511eed42509c6f3a82b853996f...
- JohnTHaller 10y agoIncorrect. Compare it to your 8am photo and it is much more filled in. Please post another rear image from the Washington monument to properly compare the two. Or keep posting low-angle front-shot photos to fit your personal narrative.
