Kate Wheeler on CTV Newsnet in a 9:00 AM PST tease regarding upcoming news items:
“Canada and the U.S. cut interest rates, but the slide continues.”
As she spoke, the Toronto market was up a staggering 300 (plus) points.
CTV. Accurate and trustworthy.
UPDATE (9:11 AM PST):
Even the actual story failed to mention that the Toronto market was way up at this time. Wheeler mentioned only how the markets opened lower. Then left it at that. It has been up by as much as 600+ points so far today.
Liberal media. Lower=good. Higher=bad. Hates good economic news when conservatives are in power.
UPDATE (9:26 AM PST)
Guess they read my blog.
Paraphrasing: “…however….a look at mid-day trading shows the market up 300 points…”. (She added: “We’re going to keep our fingers crossed”. I’m left wondering what she meant.)
UPDATE 10:13 AM PST
Toronto is up nearly 500 points. Darn the luck, huh? Better get that UNICEF report on starving Africans out!
Update and a half: CBC is already on it.
UPDATE (12:57 PM PST):
The Toronto market closes up roughly 465 points higher. (That’s a “slide” up, CTV).
New York closes down just a little.
The liberal media’s much hoped for, talked-up, and hyped Armageddon did not materialize. Liberal media in high dudgeon.
UPDATE (1:53 PM PST):
Actual nearly final figure: It slid by 508 points, upward. Let’s hope it keeps “sliding” tomorrow. Maybe it will fall another 100 points upward.
