Omission is as important a tactic for a propagandist as lies and half truths, Fox News proved it

[Fred Sanders]

today, yet again.

Fox News refused to post a single story on the unemployment rate falling to a 6 year low, 6 month jobs total gain the highest in 8 years......they banished it to the cricket zone of Fox Business website, where even there they could not have anything bad to say, so they deflected the entire article to handwringing over higher interest rates and the Fed stopping quantitative easing.

Bastards.

1. Well, if they mentioned it

they'd have to give some credit to that awful Negro in the Oval office, and they won't do that. Ever. Demented children...

2. Out of curiosity I went to the front page.

This is literally the first time I willingly went to that site, mind you. Anyway, the report is there, in a small thumbnail. But they have this much more prominent report about Wall Street, and not a damn word in that entire article about why it busted past 17k. It's because of the jobs report!

In fact, they have an article right under it entitled "June jobs report not a game changer for the markets?"

And of course, the conclusion is wishy washy, claiming that they're all part time workers, etc.

I hate Fox News and all propagandist outlets with a dark passion,so should any thinking person.
