Default Western media lying about size of Serb protest last week

I found this posted on a blog:
Western MSM Keeps Bending Reality to Suit Official Agenda

CNN was the only official media outlet in the West that has properly reported that around 100,000 people gathered Tuesday in Banja Luka, capital of Serbian Republic (RS) in Bosnia-Herzegovina, at another rally in protest against the unilaterally declared independence of Pristina separatists.
The figure of "more than 10,000" protesters in Banja Luka, cited by other Western news agencies (AP, AFP, Reuters, BBC, DPA et al.), could mean even the 100,000, because 100,000 is indeed "more than 10,000", but one would still expect that they wouldn't sink so low as to cut the number of protesters down to a mere 10 percent, or less, of the actual number of demonstrators.
The exact same thing occurred less than a week ago, when a huge rally organized in Serbian capital saw Belgrade being flooded by demonstrators from all over Serbia, as well as from Montenegro and Republic of Srpska. The first reports on CNN stated that over 2,000,000 people poured into Belgrade, blocking entire downtown and branching off onto the surrounding bridges, simply because the plateau in front of the National Parliament and St. Sava Cathedral was too small to accommodate so many people.
Then BBC World reporter told his TV station half a million people took part in Kosovo is Serbia protest and the common prayer afterwards, which the AP, Reuters and all the others quickly cut down to 150,000. From thereon that became an official figure faithfully repeated everywhere. Because, who can know that it was ten, maybe 20 times more people than that?
Those who flatly lied throughout the civil wars in the former Yugoslavia, multiplying the number of non-Serbian victims by 50, 100 and 200 (remember the alleged 100,000 and 500,000 "massacred Albanians" in Kosovo province during NATO aggression on Serbia?), should not be expected to start telling other inconvenient truths at any point in time. Not that CNN is any better, but slips like this simply reveal the duplicity and manipulations Western MSM constantly uses to warp and distort every issue, imperceptibly bending reality to suit the official agenda.
