LAURA INGRAHAM: All I'm saying is that they focus on Donald Trump how could he say -- this is all false, didn't happen. Chris Christie said it didn't happen. Maybe there weren't -- we don't have video of thousands of people on the rooftop, but is that really the point here? Yeah, you be as accurate as you can, clearly. But to listen to the media criticism of Trump, there was nobody. Every Muslim in the United States was celebrating, was united against terrorism.

[...]

The point is, there were people on rooftops celebrating, so much so that they had to raid the building in Jersey City.

[...]

Who cares if it's 1000 or 50? And in the end, we have a problem if we have American citizens or people here in this country cheering on the attacks. Imagine if it was a handful of people cheering on, publicly cheering on the beating of a African American person, public cheering it on. Not protesting the police or protesting a unfair police interaction or illegal or violent interaction with an African American, but let's say there were people cheering that on. Do you think the media would care about whether it is 1000 or a handful?
