Yep. They understand they are going to take yet another hammering in 2014 if the job difficulty keeps recuperating. They have been given an a**-whomping in November - in part using fact they have locked up Congress for the final 4 years. they're incapable of gaining wisdom of from, or admitting to, previous blunders. There needs to be a metamorphosis interior the management in the event that they anticipate to stay workable as a option to "liberalism." Even Sean Hannity has lost 0.5 of his scores using fact the election - i does no longer be stunned if he gets fired interior the subsequent whilst. bill Oh'somewhat has lost visitors. apparently, the Teabaggers have lost the religion. they're even indignant at their own occasion. The GOP did each little thing that they could to make Obama seem ineffective - and ended up making themselves seem thoroughly pathetic.

One could argue this number isn't quite the news story is was last time BECAUSE it is competing with other very serious stories: Sandy, Election on Tuesday.
It really is a waste of time to criticize biased media if you are going to eat up other biased media in its place.
Also, can we PLEASE not forget that Romney is surrounded by former Bushies (for economics, foreign policy etc). The unemployment rate when Bush left office was SIGNIFICANTLY higher than when he came in.
Also, Republicans have controlled the House since 2010. WHAT HAPPENED?

Because Republican messaging has been that Obama hadn't been able to get unemployment under 8%. They made it into a big psychological barrier, which made its breaking big news. Perhaps if unemployment went back over 8%, you would see more of a big to-do over the latest numbers.
But the real reasons are probably irrelevant to you. You just want an excuse to accuse any media outlet that isn't highly critical of Obama and supportive of Romney of being biased.

Maybe they knew the fiscally literate could figure out for themselves 2% GDP isn't going to lower unemployment for a long, long time

Yahoo has always been liberal. No surprise that right before an election where Obama could be in trouble they would not fuel the fire.

Not to mention for African Americans it's 14.2% yet they vote for Obama in droves...they say Romney will put them back in chains and back to the fields, but it's the democrats who can't seem to get them working - the democrats are good at making them dependent slaves to the government. I wish, just wish they would see this and realize that it's the democrats who are USING them.

LOL
I missed the story because I was expecting it to be the top headline in the news.
But they buried it 3 items down.
So pathetic.

simple... one was both unexpected and a major change...
that means it's newsworthy... ever watch the news... ever notice how the biggest stories are usually things that are major changes and things that are unexpected...
this jobs report hit the expectations almost exactly... (which may be surprising for some, heh)
something happening as expected... not nearly as newsworthy...
