has anyone in the media even mentioned this
Check this out, touching on the figures on the fifth only.
I believe the source was Reuters. They actually covered it pretty well for the single day.
Some in the media were playing the two day loss up as the worst two day loss since October of 1987. All hands on deck were bailing with buckets to keep anyone from thinking this could have had anything to do with a guy named Obama, or what he has promised to do.
Of course they still played up Bush complicity. His policies caused this. No mention of the bad loans the Democrats forced. Par for the course. History rewritten while you wait.
If McCain/Palin were President/VP Elect, do you think the media would have given them a pass?
