"The lead headline in the politics section, White House: Stimulus saved 2 million jobs, brings the reader to a glowing article about a standard claim from the Obama administration that yes, the unemployment rate is at a disastrous level, but it would be so much worse if not for the stimulus package. The other headline at the bottom, White House changes stimulus job accounting, points out how the administration had to respond to its previous – um, embellishments – on the number of jobs effected by the stimulus package, then points out how the new method would actually inflate those erroneous numbers, and subsequently explains why said method would make accuracy an impossibility."
