The mainstream media painting a grimmer picture of our economic situation than is warranted?

I’m shocked.

It seems as though we never get anything but doom and gloom from the media about the economy, but I’d caution readers to evaluate their own situations before they buy into any of it.  How is your financial picture?  Have you lost your job?  Are your wages going up or down?  Is your business doing well?

If you’re doing ok chances are most of the people around you are doing ok too, and the constant economic misery you read about in the newspaper is just there to sell newspapers.  Or advance a political agenda.
