The number of people watching his inauguation however is debatable because if you count the millions of online viewers the alternative facts are true. The press is making a fake story out of this.

Oh lord, G. Orwell and F. scott were right, doublethink can happen and it is happening. 1984 is starting to look like the work of a prophet. 

If you count only the physical visitors, media is right (despite the rain and the fact that entry often was blocked by protesters)
If you count in the online viewers that Spicer brought into the discussion, Trump had more viewers than any president before and he was given that information.

Both sides are right, depending on the viewpoint so where is the problem. The fake news story is the media claiming that Trump meant physical watchers while he was referring to all watchers (physical + online).

There are zero lies here just different perspectives and mainstream media that want to destroy Trump at any cost. The problem is that too many people are blindly believing the media without checking the real facts.
