Do the talking heads on Bloomberg cable network get paid extra for talking nothing but negativity? I turned them on this morning to see the jobs report and boy, they talk as if the economy is getting worse by the minute. They downplayed the good jobs report as much as possible.

Of the larger TV networks Bloomberg is in the mosh-pit with MSNBC, CNN and a couple of others..........CNN ran a written piece this AM after which you'd've thought the economy adding millions of jobs that last several weeks was bad news. Context is one thing shilling for the DNC is quite another.

Doesn't mean they are completely wrong or even mostly wrong. Still a lot of noise and uncertainty with things shutting back down at the end of June. Still a lot of Fed and stimulus money propping things up.

The piece in question is very close to propaganda. Work your way back in time and look at how Bloomberg treated economic good news during Obama's presidency.

It being projected that 42% of the nearly 50 million unemployed might not even get their jobs back. We have seen 7 million jobs in the last two months, but how many of these 7 million "new" job holders, still hold a job right now in July? A number of states have closed up bars, gyms, movie theaters and water parks again due to a surge on the hospitals.

If/When they do... I suspect they'll be earning less.
