Oops, My Bad, Unemployment Edition

Unemployment reached a 26 year high during the Bush administration, and the networks trumpeted the fact and devoted most of their newscast blaming the President for the sagging economy, which continued to spiral despite record deficit spending. The media highlighted members of congress demanding that something be done immediately and calling the President to task for allowing things to get so far out of hand.

Oops, my bad.

The 26 year high in unemployment figures happened, of course, last month, which placed it squarely during the Obama administration, and the networks tried to sweep it under the proverbial rug, acting like good little lapdogs.

Good boy, mainstream media, good boy. Who’s a good doggie? You are. Yes, you are.
