At least 600 reporters and media folks at the Justice for J6 rally in DC -- with only around 20 rally-goers.

One rally/march I was at...quite a while ago...was a few thousand people. Media? We did get a mention on the local news, followed by a tea-party sit-in of about 6 people at a Congressman's office. Fair and balanced. 6 people=a few thousand. Same, same.

The anti-ACA rallies always got a lot of coverage. When our pro rally was held and there were 5 times as many people there, we couldn't a reporter to cover it at all. It's disgusting.

The reporters were probably there in support of trump, using their cameras as an excuse.
