Sandra Fluke Wows 'Em In Reno
— Ace

First check this story in the Reno Gazette-Journal. Remember that name.

There is no mention of how many people came out to see the Flukester. Correction: I missed the first sentence. It does in fact say "about ten people" came to see her.

The picture focuses on Fluke -- just Fluke. The crowd she's speaking to could be any number you like. It could be vast.

Here's another photo from the... event. From a perspective the Reno Gazette-Journal did not fancy.

The crowd is not vast.

Here's the Daily Caller's coverage.

Sandra Fluke delivers campaign speech to mostly empty parking lot in north Reno

Women’s rights activist Sandra Fluke on Saturday delivered a speech to ten Nevada residents in the mostly empty parking lot of a Sak ‘N Save grocery store in north Reno, taking “center stage” to urge them to vote for President Barack Obama, according to the Reno Gazette-Journal.

...

The event had been promoted in the Gazette-Journal for days in advance, though the paper did not make it clear whether Fluke would be speaking in the parking lot or the produce aisle.

So the RGJ promoted this appearance for days. Then when she spoke to an embarrassingly small crowd, they edited out any information about attendance, including chosing a picture based primarily on the fact it offered no hints about crowd size.

But they're not biased. They certainly don't give their Designated Heroes favorable coverage and their Designated Villains unfavorable coverage. Nope. It's straight down the middle. They just want to get the story right, you know.

Correction: Much of this post is simply in error, because I missed the first sentence (!!!-- Wow, even the first sentence I blew).

They did report the number of people who came out to see her... generously rounding up to "about ten." (Eight or nine is "about ten." Under a dozen we usually count and don't round to the nearest ten.)

The only leg I have to stand on here is the picture, which does not show the embarrassing crowd size.

15 I count 3 men so a third of her audience came to see THE SLUT and were hoping to get laid. (or at least 1st base.)

(you know men; we're always hoping to get laid. In the most unlikely scenarios at least some men are thinking maybe they'll get laid because of it.)

34 she apparently did not read the memo sent to her. Her job is to screw and screw in exchange for people voting early for obama. If she is talking she is not making a 100 percent effort to the cause. obama is giving her free contraceptives for her to get things done.

36 Ya know what would be newsworthy? If a so-called serious journalist didn't try to promote his or her own political agenda. And the people in the entertainment industry (newspapers, news networks, tv, movies, news magazines) wonder why we don't bother with them anymore. I just wish I still had a newspaper subscription so that I could cancel it. But you only get to shove that one in their liberal faces once.

41 Umm....Ace?

Hate to be a turd and undermine your point, but that Reno Gazette-Journal article mentions that Fluke only spoke to ten people IN THE VERY FIRST FUCKING SENTENCE OF THE ARTICLE.

Seriously: "Sandra Fluke, the woman at the center of a media firestorm earlier this year after Rush Limbaugh called her a “slut,” spoke Saturday in front of about 10 people at the Sak ‘N Save in north Reno."

So I don't know what you're talking about.

Posted by: Jeff B. at October 21, 2012 11:26 AM (D9z3D)

42 It really is amazing the difference between regular folk 15 minutes of fame and political 15 minutes. 

Regular 15 minutes has a logical ending - like the cast of Animorph.  Fluke proves that political 15 minutes goes on as long as they are expedient. 

I want to say that republican 15 minutes isn't as long, but then there were those Joe the plumber commercials at my parents house in northern Ohio.  At least Joe asked a good question.  Fluke just flopped her genitals out onto the national stage for comment.

43 Fluke seems less comely in this photo than others I have seen.  She seems almost ... frumpy.

47 It is shit like this that makes me say Obama is going to lose big.  NV has been trending blue for a while now with all the unions and the CA deadbeats coming in.  But when they can only get 19 people to show up for an Obama rally it tells you something.  Especially in the Reno-Sparks area.

66 quite a gift for woids:

“I’m trying to do everything I can for an election that I feel is very important. I have a unique opportunity for how I get to do that,” said Fluke

also...

Leo Horishny, among the people who came to see Fluke in Reno, said he wanted to see the person who members of the media had used “intimidating rhetoric against as a political tactic.”“It’s a scary trend today,” Horishny said. “I think she is a brave woman.”

(maybe he's the bicycle shorts guy)

104 It's down the memory hole. The Gazette-Journal page now goes to an article that says Fluke talked to a crowd of "about ten people." When I clicked on the link at AOSHQ I saw the original article for a second, then an RGJ subscription offer appeared. When I closed the subscription offer I was redirected to the main page of the RGJ. I searched the site for Fluke and found only the new, more honest article. Need a screen capture or a Wayback of the original.

I thought his comment was superfluous since he didn't seem to indicate that it was amusing or ironic and it had nothing to do with the actual point of the post (which is the irrelevancy of Sandra Fluke and her and the Democrats' phony outrage that she couldn't get her birth control paid for by the taxpayer.

Like I said, last I heard "seniority" here doesn't confer immunity or infallibility or omnipotence.

Anyone who thinks that way is 9/10ths of the way towards being an autocrat or oligarch and those mindsets are deadly toward freedom and liberty.

The low quality of the Media's output also has another consequence: people tend to read it less attentively (which is frankly the correct way to read it).

233 The most hilarious part of the picture...THEY ARE STANDING IN ONE VACANT PARKING SPOT!! Between two parked cars! When all my kids pile out of my Suburban, we exceed that!! Who sets up a rally in a single parking lot slip?? I guess you quickly move to the most confined spot you can find when your "rally", looks more like the book club lottery pool checking their tickets.

246 Has anyone in the Obama camp realized that the only people who take Fluke seriously are already deeply in the bag for them and sending Fluke on the campaign trail is an utter waste of money? Worse, it reminds people who are wavering on Obama of this national embarrassment?

247 A commenter at HA claims to be the woman in the purple shirt, who went to document it and try to engage some of the attendees from a conservative viewpoint. So the "about 10" aren't even all supporters. If I stood in a grocery store parking lot silently pointing at the sky, I'd have a bigger crowd in 10 minutes.

Normally I would agree with the implied sentiment, but it was 4th and like 30, and that from sacks not penalties. I think they were worried that if they ran another play they'd wind up in the parking lot behind the stadium.

Theres a car two spaces over from her is that all the space she can carve out for the masses to hear the gospel?

ACE: Unfortunately I've got to head to the saltmines in a minute so I don't have much time to read all the comments, but I'm pretty certain that the Reno paper is actually endorsing Romney this election and I also think they endorsed Obama in '08. I read that article this morning and I think there was a link to an endosement page along with a lot of angry comments by followers of the One.

 

Have a good night morons.
