Liberty on Tap since 1984
Post: Rally Attendees Old, White, God-believing, Midwesterners and Southerners
Reported on the newspaper's 12:06 update to the story about the Glenn Beck rally:
On the Mall, an overwhelmingly white crowd of tens of thousands stood quietly during an opening prayer, the silence broken only by an occasional "amen." The dense assembly , which contained few young people, stretched from the Lincoln Memorial, past the reflecting pool, to the World War II Memorial and spilled onto the grounds of the Washington Monument.
The crowd, consisting of many from the Midwest and the South, was not visibly angry. Rather, they said they had come to express their fear that the country was at a perilous moment.
The Post reporters were obviously surprised the crowd wasn't angry.

How come we don't have a crowd estimate?
