The numbers for the Muslim march were reported on various news sites online (not FOX). The Biker numbers were from a variety of accounts, social networking , online news sources. You can get a sense of the numbers in personal videos from various sources on youtube.
Here are just a few of many sources in addition to numerous photos and videos posted via Facebook/YouTube:

Fox just interviewed one of the key organizers of the 2 Million Biker march.
I don't really believe in the accuracy of any mainstream news station. Fox just happened to be the ONLY one that gave more than 30 seconds of airtime to a rally of more than 800,000 people. (Not really a
"good or bad thing", but it's the only station that gave air time to an event that's a pretty big deal. Facebook is booming with personal accounts backed by photos and videos that show this rally was indeed massive, while it's quite clear the March Against Fear had about 25 people present.edit on 11-9-2013 by PrinceAdam because: (no reason given)edit on 11-9-2013 by PrinceAdam because: (no reason given)

Looks like fear won because people who are saying this was for Muslim rights in America are wrong according to the organizers.

How do we know how many Muslims compared to how many Bikers there were since it's a competition?
oh, that's right... because it's on Fox News, the most reliable news source in the world.
Is the fact that this was covered on fox news and they came to speak on fox news a good thing or a bad thing.
I'm totally confused now. You don't watch Fox News because it's news. You watch Fox News to know who you should no longer trust.
Woopsie. I don't think that move was a very good idea.
"These guys are basically exploiting an annual commemoration of an attack in which America lost over 3,000 lives to radical Islam," Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, author of A Battle for the Soul of Islam: An American Muslim Patriot's Fight to Save His Faith and president of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy(AIFD), told The Christian Post in a Tuesday interview. "It's part of this lobby of Islamist groups in America that believe America is to blame rather than taking ownership."
And obviously the Muslims picked 9/11 because of the terrorist attacks.
It was a tacky and stupid thing to do.

I think we should give the Muslims back the Middle East. They can all go back there and have it and the west will stay out. The deal is for this however the west will also take all our technology, that is any modern technology designed and built by non muslims. The Iraqis will need to dismantle their Nuclear program, all camera phones and computers confiscated, and no more medical surgery, no more modern technology at all, which includes confiscating all guns and ammo. They can fight with rocks and sticks. In exchange we will make the middle east a zone free of westerners.edit on 29-8-2013 by AthlonSavage because: (no reason given)

Allright now,I understand your point. They do have a right to protest but they could have been a little more tactful in their choice of date. I was disagreeing with the ignore them statement, we cant just cant keep on ignoring problem groups with the hopes that they will go away. their point to this protest I gather was for equal rights, right? just what rights have they been denied? as long as they follow the law of the land they are living in I dont see the problem.
