It’s a remarkable thing, isn’t it. They’ve reached a point where they can say ANYTHING at all no matter how entirely void of factual content and the lamers at NBC or the NYT will lap it up like starving pups.
I have posted numerous times in the last few years that the current admin can make up anything and are never challenged or really fact-checked by the press. Whenever the Admin needs some positive information, they make it up. Many FR threads call it Obama's fun-with-numbers. They just pull them out of their rears.
Need 7% unemployment? No problem, wallah! Look - unemployment just dropped.
Need 1 million or 7.1 million signees to Obamacare? No problem wallah! Look - so many people are rushing to sign up that they broke the website.
The compliant media not only cover for the Obama people, they help clarify the talkingpoints and comments should anyone from the Obama admin stumble in an interview.

They do. They really work hard to refine the message no matter how pretzel-like they must twist logic to do it. It’s a peculiar skillset as applied by the apparatchik at the New York Times.
