The Sin of Omission

Ahh yes. Our friends at Yahoo finance, butt nuggets from the left coast, have covered Wednesday's stock plummet. They fail to mention one little fact in their spectacular coverage. That fact is that Obama gave a state of the union speech last night. Could it be that his comments had anything to do with Wall Street's sharp dive?


Nahhhh.

Click on the image to see a perfect propaganda example of the sin of omission.

[Update]




Now Obama won over "skeptics" with his "Reagan'esque" speech...at least Obama's speech is now mentioned, though know intellectual "map" to the fact that his speech took the market a good few percentage points is provided.


*shaking my head in disbelief*


[Update]

Again, in the Friday wrap up, no mention of Obama's speech having anything to do with the market dive...three strikes your out!
