It sounds like one or two guys booing..? Falling for news like this is how you grow complacent and not have the voter turnout that you expect.
Nearly exact opposite headline here - Nikki Haley's home state cheers Donald Trump at college football game.
Yes, it's all bullshit and it's designed in these ways for their target audience. I actually posted another similar one further down on this thread as well.
It's meant to cause division to drive outrage and profits, and everyone just gobbles it up.
Someone needs to get their hearing checked. The embedded video in the tweet clearly has many overlapping boos, both men and women.

I heard a mix of boos, cheering, and random noise. So you could make a headline that says either and it would still be "technically" true. The best kind of truth.
You didn’t report anything that wasn’t already reported. The booing is definitely more prominent.
And saying it was just one or two guys is just dumb.
Nah, it's bait news. Getting booed at a football game is not the same as getting booed by a handful of people as you drive through an area near the stadium.
Voters are voters. Boos are boos. Especially to Trump.
And you still apparently need a schedule a checkup or something.
Lol wtf does that have to do with anything? Go get yourself checked, not sure why you're being so hostile over literally nothing.
“Fascist criminal with plans to retake highest office in the country is audibly disliked in public event amidst multiple court cases and investigations, demonstrating that the populace wants him behind bars while he continues to make public appearances for his fascist supporters. The outcome of what happens with Donald Trump will determine if the United States becomes a fascist ethnostate or a precedent is created to hold criminals in public office more accountable.”
Are you equating that to what I said?
I was just pointing out that the media spins everything and that you shouldn't buy into it that much. I even warned that that the consequences of buying into the narratives can lead to what happened in 2016. So.. what? Are you people actually insane?
Projection.
Of what..? Easy to just say a buzzword and not have any context behind it.
What have I said that was incorrect? Do you think a crowd of people in a football stadium booing someone (as the headline would have you think) is the same as a few people (maybe even 50 people, sure) booing at a car outside of a stadium?
If it helps you think logically, I did not vote for Trump and I'm not planning to.
Yes one video of Trump being booed will stop thousands from voting for some reason
Probably not, but it hasn't really kicked into gear yet. There will be many more. It happened in 2016 did it not?

The current state of news media is garbage. All of it. The intent is not disseminating information, it's twisting and controlling it to fit a narrative.
