[Peace-discuss] Numbers game

[Brussel Morton K.]

Re. Obama in Berlin, the U.S. news media, AP, Reuters, and AFP are  
quoting upwards of 200,000 in attendance at Obama's speech, but from  
EuroNews, we read:

In an emotive speech in Berlin US presidential candidate Barack Obama  
has urged Europe to stand by America in a range of challenges facing  
the allies.

He was given a rapturous welcome by tens of thousands of Berliners  
after talks earlier with Chancellor Angela Merkel.



What is it, 200,000 (a number provided by the Berlin police) or tens  
of thousands?   --mkb
