NBC is reporting balanced news.

After reporting about Trump's claim of DC crime, they provided stats that contradicted him.

They also showed through consumer index prices how everything is much more expensive.

11. Better than not reporting on it at all.

When the media acts like everything is peachy keen and perfectly normal, it feels like a slap in the face to me, like a great big FU on top of everything we're already going through. At least NBC is pointing out that he's wrong and telling it like it is.

And think of how pissed he'll be. He can't stand to have his lies contradicted , and he's going to HATE this!

This is why we laugh at you idiots. This DC deal is really bothering them.

DC police commander suspended, accused of changing crime statistics

https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/dc-police-commander-suspended-crime-statistics/3959566/

A D.C. police commander is under investigation for allegedly making changes to crime statistics in his district.

The Metropolitan Police Department confirmed Michael Pulliam was placed on paid administrative leave in mid-May. That happened just a week after Pulliam filed an equal employment opportunity complaint against an assistant chief and the police union accused the department of deliberately falsifying crime data, according to three law enforcement sources familiar with the complaint.

The union claims police supervisors in the department manipulate crime data to make it appear violent crime has fallen considerably compared to last year.

My emphasis. Funny how facts disappear in MSM "reports" when the facts demonstrate Trump being correct.

In the real world:

Inflation held steady in July

WASHINGTON (NEXSTAR) – Lower prices for gas and food kept inflation steady last month but the cost of housing was significantly higher in July than it was last year.

Gas prices plummeted last year and that’s kept inflation lower than expected but a different number, core inflation, which excludes gas and groceries rose 3% and economists say it’s increasing sharply.

“The economic indicators show that we are moving in the right direction,” said White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.

My emphasis. So, gas and food prices are down, but nobody buys either with any regularity, right?
