In early October the price of a gallon of regular gas in central North Carolina was over $3.00. At some stations it cost as much as $3.19.
MSM was in full “blame-Bush” mode, with front page stories saying high gas prices would not only help sink his presidency, but damage Republican chances in the ’06 congressional elections.
On Nov. 6 I posted that a gallon of gas in central NC had dropped to $2.54 at many stations but the major networks were actually continuing to talk about rising gas prices.
Now on Dec. 3 I see gas stations selling regular for $2.05.
Any MSM front page stories about how the sharp drop in gas prices will help President Bush and the Republican’s chances in the ’06 congressionals?
If they’re out there, I can’t find them.
If you want to learn more about how one MSM newspaper, the liberal trending further left Raleigh News & Observer, reports economic news visit Scott Pierce at Right in Raleigh. He regularly catches The N&O spinning economic news.

gotta love the media. they try to fool the masses with mis-information (what else can you call it) and hope no one will call them on it. the great charlotte (NC) observer has seen some falling numbers, and from what i understand, is for sale(?)-parent company i believe? good riddence.
