Our Economy, Through the Lens of Non-Partisan Media

Or, not so much...

Ace is upset that ABC News is running a picture of a hiring sign at McDonald's alongside a story about the unemployment rate dipping to 4.4%.
How... utterly expected. They simply will not drop their claim that the only jobs being created are "burger-flippin'" jobs at Mickey D's.

Is it really possible that McDonald's corporation has added almost seven million new burger-flippers over the past four years?

Washington Post is running the same photo- it's a meme!

And then there's this, which is an interesting comparison of the attitude of NYT stories about job growth during the late 90s, compared to now.
