MissAmericanPie :
The really inane thing is using the liberal MSM label as if MSM is a real thing in today's media markets. If it floats your boat, sail off, but it ain't real., KDC is the local MSM. ask its owners. You're one of its main content creators. You're one of the popular influencers for a major segment of its target audience. You sell ads. Demand royalties.

I get what you're saying and agree that the media should stop with that! The point is not the numbers and why.

KingwoodNana :
In see the media which exists to sell advertising putting what some call click and bait to have numbers when selling ds. The data that they put in headlines and superficial articles barely skims the surface. Digging in takes time and practice. I bet MissAmericanPie hasn't spent the time and doesn't have the experience., The same is true for most of those reading the news to an audience. I wish they'd all stop, but they sell ads with their winsome smiles and furrowed brows.

I neither feel pain nor watch you think of as news channels. I can think for myself.

#msg6032796justanirishgirl : Im not defending Trump, i dont care lol. But the media definitely is trying to make it look like this economy is horrible, and its not, and they have a very powerful influence in how we all think and they aint afraid to use it. AI Summary The US economy shows signs of strength, with steady growth and resilience despite facing challenges like inflation and interest rate hikes. However, there are concerns about potential downturns and pressures that could impact future performance. Business Insider Current State of the US Economy The US economy is navigating a complex landscape of growth and challenges. Growth Rate - The economy is expanding again after a dip in early 2025, but growth in 2026 has been modest. Inflation Concerns - Core inflation remains a significant issue, affecting purchasing power and economic stability. Labor Market - Employment levels are relatively strong, contributing to consumer spending and economic activity. Resilience Factors - The US economy has outperformed major rivals despite global disruptions, attributed to factors like budget deficits and consumer spending. NerdWallet Sounds balanced?
 
MissAmericanPie : oh they didn't really report anything under Biden. They didn't report how the prices of everything was going up because of their climate change hoax. They didn't report how high groceries were except for eggs. They didn't talk about beef or anything else. They did not want Biden to look bad but he did. He was a terrible president. Inflation was so high under him and our retirement was not going anywhere. But what do you expect from the state run democratic media?

I don't really follow the media so I have to ask those that do so assiduously. If the MSM did not report about inflation, how did enough voters voters find out and decided to vote for Trump?

I a lot of times when I hear how awful someone is or the awful things they have done or not done I call it propaganda. It usually rears its ugly head around election times. This is my opinion.

There is a reason why it's called television programming.

February 2026 the PEW RESEARCH CENTER published a study of Americans' relationship with the news. It is complicated. Some seek it, some avoid it, some happen upon it. Many don't know what to and what not to believe of what they hear, read or see.
The crazy thing, we tend to have favorite sources to believe. The other source can say the same thing and we don't believe it because of the source. One best friend believes anything published in the NYT is a liberal lie I have fun with laudatory business section articles about her father written some years ago. She likes the word codswallop.
