Information on 10.2% unemployment not being reporting in Nashville TN.
11/06/2009 | TMMT

Posted on 11/06/2009 2:54:03 PM PST by The Magical Mischief Tour

I just surfed through the websites of the local TV stations and the two main newspapers here, The Tennessean and the Trashville City Paper and not a single one of the TV stations or newspaper websites has one article or story on anything to do with unemployment, let alone the fact that the numbers are now at 10.2%.

Its disgusting!

Some news outlets have resorted to seperate but equal when it comes to the net.

Full outset bias in their normal tv print format and then limited but actual coverage fo the other story to get the clicks for advertising.

Double digit unemployment is only major bad news if there is a Republican president. If a good Democrat is president, such news is glossed over, because the MSM perceive that the good Democrat has his heart in the right place.

My local news radio station told me that this is GOOD news! The stimulated economy has encouraged discouraged workers back into the work force to look for a job. Who knew? (I’m in Buffalo, by the way.)

They should be able to report it in the first few dozen years under socialism. After all, everything is "Bush's fault".

The newspapers were probably already printed before the results come out. I believe tomorrow we will see it in the papers (even if only in 2 pitch).

Eh, I don’t need to hear that on the local news. As it is, they do local news in about six minutes then start doing the same national stories — sometimes with the same video — that the national news show just did a half hour earlier.
