"On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord."
Hope was a big theme all throught the campaign and the inaugaration. I think it was very important to a lot of people. It inspired and motivated people. That's why I chose a picture of it and a quote from the president's speech concerning it.
I think the media in general presented the inaugaration day in similar ways. They all tryed to stay focused on what was happening at the Capitol building as it happened. I'm not sure all the stations did this, but I know while I was watching on CNN they would, every once in a while, cut to shots of people watching the ceremony in various cities aroung the U.S.
