Here's one from CNBC this morning:
quote:

Prices drop slightly, but this could be the calm before the storm


Even good news is spun by these propagandists to be potentially bad news

Could be the calm before the storm. They could be a million dollars next week.

Is this not accurate?

This one is definitely more petty or wishcasting, but nothing wrong at all with the AP headline unless one of those two points is inaccurate.

so sick of hearing about egg prices. I don't care what they cost, I am going to buy them. it's like milk and coffee, they are necessities.

Trump said it to their faces at the State of The Union.

I could cure cancer and this side would boo me.

fear mongering at its best....

If Dems were in charge you would have an article saying the policies put in place by Biden have lowered egg prices. It is disgusting.

Headline is using trailing CPI numbers vs real live tracker. This data is a month old. Why have a news headline on this… oh wait!

It's accurate in the same sense that it would be accurate for me to say to the board, hey everybody, ragincajun03 wasn't drunk by 8 am today.

Technically accurate, but intentionally misleading

You know, it's ALL the legacy media.

NYTimes, Washington Post, Bloomberg, Wall Street Journal....

Mostly peaceful inflation......

No. It’s not accurate.

The average high was actually in February.

I mean, no one should be excited about a slight price drop. shite is still incredibly expensive.

The MSM should be heckled and booed at every turn. No respect given in every given situation. They are worst than the old National Enquirer ilk.
