They say a picture is worth a thousand words and boy are they right.
Ever notice when Joe Biden gives a public speech, the camera stays tight on him, and there is never a wide angle?
For example, note the camera angle when Biden mocked gun owners by telling them they would need F-15s to defend themselves.

Based on the camera angle one would imagine that Biden is speaking to a group the size of the one below, which was a Trump rally earlier this summer.

But Fox News did take a wide shot during Biden’s speech and…well.we’ll let the video below speak for itself.
Good on FOX for the wide shot showing the gathering 😂

They keep the camera tight on Biden with people behind him because they are trying to emulate the size of a Trump rally.
In the summer of 2021, CNN attempted a similar stunt however, below is a picture from the back of the room.
