I don't even care if the liberals respond to this, you don't get it and will never get it.
Here is another example of liberal media bias. Its clear, its easy to see, anyone can understand it. I have to deal with enough stupid people in my life in one day, not interesting in hearing more stupidity from people trying to argue the lack of media bias:
To measure the media hype, MRC analysts reviewed ABC, CBS and NBC morning and evening news shows from April 12 through May 2. During those 21 days, the networks collectively aired 183 stories about rising oil and gas prices — 125 full reports or interview segments, plus another 58 brief anchor-read items.
In contrast, only four network stories during this period mentioned the low unemployment rate, 4.7 percent. And after the government reported strong economic growth on April 28, ABC and NBC each aired one story, while the CBS Evening News has yet to mention that good news.

Could be that the unemployment rate only affects 4.7% of the people and oil prices affect 99%.
unemployment is only one measure of the great economy...during the 90's we heard about how GREAT the economy was all the time....not, when the economy is great again, we hear nothing
Uh, that's because there was no war going on to distract people from the GREAT economy.
Unemployment is at 4.7%, but underemplotment and the number of families falling under the poverty line is skyrocketing. Now there is a situation that its a crime not to report every few days.
FYI, I think you and jim both have part of the truth. There is a bias in the media, and that bias(as we have mentioned 1884575629287475 times) is that the media is biased towards the BIG story or whats sensational. When unemployment was so low during the 90'2, that WAS the sensational story, cuz it had been SO bad throughout the 80's, and(as jim said) there was no HUGE story to cover about a president that openly hates them.
give me these facts of "underemployment"...what the hell are you even talking about?
Based on rhyno's statements this week, he has either switched medication or gotten off of all of them...I don't know where you come up with all these vague comments that don't make any sense.
OK.
In economics, the term underemployment has at least three different meanings. All three of them involve underutilization of labor that is missed by official definitions and measurements of "unemployment."
