The media, and Socialists, have nearly perfected the are of telling the truth, and a lie at the same time! If this confuses you, don't worry, you're not alone. This tactic is very effective at creating a false narrative that people get suckered into believing, and when challenged, they can claim it's true, which it often is. But it's still a lie. Allow me to illustrate by taking a few headlines from recent news reports that are clear examples.
“The stock market is going through the roof, and yet manufacturing production is down over the past year. Wage growth is slowing,” Leslie Stahl of CBS NEWS 60 Minutes said while interviewing JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon in November 2019.
Let's analyze what she said, shall we.

"The stock market is going through the roof, (Fact check = TRUE)

"and yet manufacturing production is down over the past year." (Fact Check = TRUE and a LIE) Although manufacturing production is down, it is down slightly from the past year, but if you look at the 5 year, 10 year or even the 25 year trend, you will see that overall the trend has been in decline until 2008, where it hit rock bottom suddenly, and didn't recover till 2011, where it continued the steady trend downward. That downward trend stopped in 2016 and started a near 3 year march upward. Only in the last 9 months has manufacturing production dropped.

If you look at the 1 yr trend, you will see the trend linked directly to the actions of the Democrats and their relentless pursuit of impeaching President Donald Trump. This of course is having some effect on this metric. If you can't see that, you are truly blind or wilfully ignorant!

Back to the conversation between Leslie Stahl  of CBS NEWS and Jamie Dimon CEO of JPMorgan Chase. She went on to say " Wage growth is slowing" (Fact Check = TURE and a LIE)  Notice the wording here, this is the key. "Wage growth is slowing" The key word being GROWTH! She admits their is growth, but not as fast as the previous cycle. It's like increasing sales in your lemonade stand from 10 dollars in Monday, to 15 dollars in Tuesday, then in Wednesday it increases to 19.50. The Wednesday increase is only 4.50 compared to the 5.00 increase seen on Tuesday. They call this a decline in profits, a loss compared to the previous day, that it's slowing! When in fact it is GROWING. That is how they manipulate and lie to your face, when technically the are telling the truth.
So when you hear the media and left wing politicians quote numbers and statistics, always remember that what they are saying, although technically is factual, is being presented and packaged in such a way that makes it a lie!
