Sean Hennessey of CBS New York Can't Count

The "Million Hoodie March", which wasn't a million and most didn't wear hoodies, was held in Union Square in NYC March 21, 2012. Several hundred people showed up to demand justice for Trayvon Martin, the unarmed 17 year old A student who was shot by George Zimmerman for no good reason. The police in Sanford, Florida accepted Zimmerman's bogus claims of self defense without investigation.

By my own rough count and the estimation of other news outlets there were several hundred people there. Sean Hennessey, the reporter who was covering the event for CBS New York, kept saying there were a few dozen people there. Many in the crowd corrected him, but he persisted in a particularly douche-y fashion.
