  • On 29 October 2016, a photograph purportedly showing a pathetic number of people in attendance at a rally featuring former President Bill Clinton was circulated on social media: As Trump supporters joked about the size of Clinton's rally, a 4Chan user uploaded an image entitled rally photoshopped.jpg: While this image was created as a joke, it eventually started circulating along with the claim that it was created by the Clinton campaign and that the mainstream media was attempting to pass it off as real to garner support for the Democratic candidate: Of course, this is not the case. This image was manipulated by a member of the 4Chan forum, not the mainstream media, and has not been posted to any of Clinton's social media accounts. It should also be noted that the original photograph showing the pathetic size of Bill Clinton's audience was misleading. The image, which was taken at Cleveland State University on 28 October 2016, does not show the full size of the audience when he actually took the stage: (en)
