CNN on Terrible December Jobs Numbers: ‘People Simply Gave Up’

CNN on Lousy Jobs Numbers: ‘People Simply Gave Up’ (NewsBusters)

The Labor Department released absolutely horrendous employment numbers Friday that are going to be difficult for the Obama-loving media to positively spin.

Moments after the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced that only 74,000 jobs had been created in December with the unemployment rate declining due to almost 500,000 people leaving the job market, Christine Romans on CNN's New Day called the report “a big miss,” “a real shocker,” “a big disappointment,” and concluded that the jobless rate “fell in part because people simply gave up.”
