Media Myths: The Housing Bubble is Bursting

November 30th, 2005 9:03 PM
Don't miss my latest writing for the Free Market Project: Media claims about a “housing bubble” are nothing new. Since before the 9/11 terror attacks, the media have been calling the housing market a “bubble” while predicting an imminent, devastating decline. Not only have they been wrong in forecasting such a top, they have thoroughly mischaracterized what an investment bubble is. Now that the…

NYT Makes 'Yes, But' Economic Reporting an Art Form

November 30th, 2005 1:25 AM
You've come to Newsbusters because you want to see a concrete example of liberal bias. Who delivers that better than the New York Times? This is reality. We're 4 years out from the worst attack since Pearl Harbor, post dot-com crash, we've had more hurricanes than any year since some old man first started keeping track, and we just about had a major U.S. city -- an economically important city…

The big news story from Iraq yesterday was the suicide bombing in Mahmudiya which killed 31 people. The Washington Post story makes it clear what the "insurgents" are really doing: A suicide attacker steered a car packed with explosives toward U.S. soldiers giving away toys to children outside a hospital in central Iraq on Thursday, killing at least 31 people. Almost all of the victims were women…

NY Times: “A Different Kind of Great Depression is Still Going On

November 24th, 2005 1:08 AM
In homes across this country that subscribe to the New York Times, Americans will                                                   wake up on Thanksgiving morning to be told that the land they love is still in some kind of Great Depression.

November 23rd, 2005 10:09 AM
A recent NewsMax piece (scroll down to article #2) gave high praise to yours truly. Please excuse the obviously shameless self-promotion, but I’m verklempt. Talk amongst yourselves. “Noel Sheppard isn't pulling any punches these days. “Sheppard has become an increasingly popular economic guru, and he could well be the political right's answer to noted liberal pundit Paul Krugman of The New York…
