Check out this screen shot of the digital version of the Republic's Women's March story.
Notice the original title to the story? "Hundreds attend". The headline writer changed it to "Thousands rally." When you read the story, you will see that the number is "about 2,000". Hmm, since 2,000 is the lowest number that can count as "Thousands" and since the reporter himself chose "hundreds", we can conclude that "about 2,000" was really "almost 2,000". That means that the headline writer isn't just spinning the story, he is lying about the numbers.
Now check out this sentence.
The event, which initially was planned as a march but was changed to a rally, attracted a diverse crowd, from young student workers to lifelong activists.
Golly, why do "marches" become "Rallies". Because there isn't enough people to actually march.
The March organizers confirmed that they didn't have enough participants in order to march and that they were scaling back.
Women's March Phoenix organizers posted on the group's Facebook page Wednesday evening that the event is "scaling back" and will be only be a rally at the Arizona state Capitol, not a march.
This fact appeared in an online article before the march, but didn't make it into the print coverage of the actual "rally".
Meanwhile, on the very same day, the Pro Life community conducted the annual Right to Life March...and it was an actual March. Meaning that they had enough participants to, you know, "march."
Check out this picture of Governor Ducey addressing the participants.
What? You missed that story? You didn't hear about the Right to Life March? That's because while the Republic was desperately trying to make the Women's March look....shall we say "viable". The same newspaper was ignoring the Right to Life March. If you want to see coverage, you will have to follow Doug Ducey, Cathi Herrod or the dozens of Legislators and Congressional representatives on Twitter or Facebook.
You know, the places that have real news.
