CNS Unemployment Numbers Distortion Watch
Topic: CNSNews.com

Is CNSNews.com getting tired of cherry-picking data and misleading readers about unemployment rates? Sort of. 

The only article CNS generated in response to the July unemployment numbers  was an Aug. 7 piece by Susan Jones declaring that "A record 93,770,000 Americans were not in the American labor force last month, and the labor force participation rate remained at 62.6 percent, exactly where it was in June -- a 38-year low."

The fact that 215,000 jobs were added in July was reduced to a bullet point at the end of the article.

This is yet another article in CNS' history of cherry-picking unfavorable unemployment numbers and burying or censoring positive ones.
