BS
Damn, you are passionate about this issue.
Bob Sacamano
Sadly, Horner is a much better counter than meteorology. I’ve never heard someone cry wolf as much as her. Time for Katie to be put out to pasture.
OMG
oh my!!!! You have uncovered the worst conspiracy since watergate. Heads should roll, people should be fired, this needs to be fixed. They should start charging admission so they can provide an accurate count. This is soooooo very importanat, we need an accurate count.
Who should we fire from thier job first? ROLL OUT THE GUILLOTINE!!! PEOPLE IN CHARGE OF THIS NEED TO BE EXECUTED!!!
while we are at it
…and while we are at it, who posted that FAKE PICTURE of the Plaza lights on this article??
THAT IS A SUCH A FAKE PICTURE!!! Just look at it, you can tell someone is trying to make it look like there are a lot more lights, than there really are!!! OMG ….. WHERE WILL THE LIES STOP??
WE MUST HAVE JUSTICE!!!!
OFF WITH THIER HEADS!!
Someone must be executed, someone must be put out to pasture, put out of their misery … esp this time of year, nothing like a good beheading, or someone being fired to make it all soooooo much better.
BS
That picture is how the Plaza looks when you’re drunk.
Trey Hillman
I think the real people we should investigate are people like OMG.
Seriously, if you want hard-hitting news, why are you trolling on here? And if the content bothers you so much why come here and be a d-head?
Just ignore it.
OMG
Trey Dillman, the imposter, should be the first to be executed, then we will find out who made the following video, then all troll will be hunted down, LET THE WITCH HUNT BEGIN. … BURN EM ALL ; )

OMG
….The web page/video page server may be down …… but the video shows a chinee CGI cartoon of Woods’ wife screaming at thim, with images of Wooods mistress popping up, and she starts hitting him and then he run out and get in the car with the wifey running behind him, breaking out his windows, and as he looks back at her, he crashes. Pretty hard hitting investigative journalism, check it out when the server is back up, and then we can get back to the root of this Plaza Lights crowd count conspiracy.

it’s always good to keep people honest. if you say a lie often enough, it gradually becomes true. if too many people let them get away with 300K when it’s really 30K, words (and numbers) lose their meaning.
p.s. I shart myself.
Lies
MU and KSU are real schools, really, they are. No kidding, you have to believe this.
craig glazer
Thanks for keepin ’em honest Hearne…and one of you guys are right the bigger crime is done daily with our local news..in order to keep you watching they knowingly exaggerate the bad weather “coming” most winters here have maybe 3-5 times when we get snow of any kind, an inch or more and six plus is huge here…yet they will as they have tell you and me that we will have at least l2 or more ‘blizzard’ type days and nights and a boatload of ‘ice storms’ almost none happen…they are never sorry for the mislead and my favorite is showing us SNOW IN OTHER CITES just to make you believe it….and ‘what if we were right we are TRYING TO SAVE LIVES’ no they aren’t they are trying to get more facetime and sell ads and keep you watching…sadly they cost KC millions in biz when they lie or exagerate..and its done on purpose..yet we choose to believe stay home, don’t shop, don’t go out and eat…and oh yeah no comedy club action when THE BLIZZARD NEVER COMES, some years we get one or two snows..oh well they’ll do it anyways
burman dinstow
If they said there were hundreds of thousands, then they must have been counting me, and that is so wrong, because I was not there! Do you think I can sue, Hearne? Can you help out a brother with some of your legal expertise?
zeke
glad you brought this up. I came across this broadcast while channel surfing, and heard them spout those crazy numbers. I really was astounded. I thought it was common knowledge that those numbers were debunked years ago. Hell, just a little common sense would tell you. Yet, here these knuckleheads were once again claiming hundreds of thousands of people. Couldn’t believe it.
Dexter Morgan
Nice work calling these people out. Some of these talking tv boneheads get on the air in a live situation and just start babbling into the microphone without anyone or anything to filter the cavalcade of nonsense that comes trickling out. Somebody in the truck should have piped into their earpiece “Get a hold of yourself”
Craig
I’ve said this before…how about someone in a helicopter (or on a rooftop) uses a high-rez digital camera to take some stills from overhead, and somebody actually COUNTS the people? Why is _anyone_ estimating, when it’s so easy to just count them. Seems like a no-brainer to me. Even if it takes a few hours to get the results, if it’s done just one time we’d have a benchmark for future years.
hearne
Thanks for your adding your thoughts, Craig. However,a scientific, accurate crowd measurement and crowd count was in fact conducted in 2003 and the magic number was 32,000 people and change. This isn’t the sort of deal that doubles and triples from one year to the next. It’s not like some kind of rock festival with killer headliners one year and nobody’s the next.
Saying there were hundreds of thousands of people there or half a million was totally beyond ridiculous.
