A Chicago Blog is calling BS on the local Fox affiliate for underestimating the size of the crowd.
From Fox:
Hundreds of people have gathered in downtown Chicago on the day income tax filings are due to protest and rally against what they called excessive government spending since President Barack Obama took office in January.
From A Chicago Blog:
Update 3:27pm: The local Fox affiliate is grossly under-reporting the numbers: “Hundreds of people have gathered in downtown Chicago …”
Update 2:29: How many people were at the Tea Party? My sources tell me 4,000.
We are not professional crowd surveyors, but 4000 sounds a bit high. Closer to 2500 maybe. Either way, characterizing this crowd as “hundreds” is grossly inaccurate to say the least.
