It's a new month, and you know what that means: Time for Ali Meyer and the rest of the CNSNews.com crew to cherry-pick statistics to make the latest unemployment numbers look as bad as possible and ignore positive news. And they do what they're paid to do:
Record 93,626,000 Americans Not in Labor Force; Participation Rate Declines to 62.6%
19.8% of U.S. Workforce Was Foreign-Born in June
56,085,000 Women Not in Labor Force; Participation Rate Declines to 56.7%
None of these stories mentioned that 223,000 jobs were created. The first story is the only one to note that the unemployment rate dropped to 5.3 percent, but not until the sixth paragraph.
