“If the media were to be believed, nervous consumers scared off by rising prices should be home guarding their wallets. Instead, they’re emptying the contents at shops and online.”
“a feel-good story about a red-hot economy in recovery mode is not what the press wants to emphasize. So economic coverage now revolves mostly around inflation reporting, which seems purposely over the top and lacking key context.”
it’s become a media obsession.
“In November alone, the New York Times published more than 130 articles and columns that mentioned “inflation” at least three times, according to Nexis. That’s an average of four inflation pieces every day for the entire month.”
