We need numbers for how many people viewed it live as it was going on.
If you argue anything else then you are being quite disingenuous and I think you know that.

How do YOU know how many people viewed it live? And now you are claiming that MILLIONS of people were simply looking for "pictures of the crowds".
No. You might be the one who is being disingenuous and you might not even realize it
I'll say this one more time to try and communicate what I am saying to you:
Television has been on the decline for years now.
The internet is on the rise for decades now.
More and more people are watching events on the internet.
Millions of people have dropped their cable t.v. in favor of internet streams.
Millions of people have stopped using computers and watch most things on their mobile devices.
You are aware of all of that right? You are in this business right? You do have google analytics to see the trending toward mobile on your sites right?
You are aware that MILLIONS and MILLIONS of people watched the inauguration on live streams on the internet...right?
If you deny all of that...then there isn't much we can discuss rationally.
I'll say it again: I don't think it was viewed more because so many people think Trump is great and love him.
I think it was viewed more because of the combination of curiosity (just like Pres. Obama generated in 2009) AND the addition of live feeds around the WORLD.
People who don't even own televisions were watching.
I'm sure that if you think about it rationally and put aside politics for a moment...you will say: "Yeah, that makes sense"
