Fox Nation has decided that any lay-offs that happened after the re-election of President Obama are all Obama's fault. Their headlines falsely accuse the president's reelection of triggering "massive layoffs" when the reality is quite different. Today's Fox Nation article, "Obama Reelection Layoffs Continue" is laughable considering the gap between reality and Fox Nation.
Got cognitive dissonance?

@Dan Clayton: “To Richardâ¦. Corporate Profits are NOT at an all time high. Certain companies⦠Apple or cellphone companies⦠They may be very profitable but banks or car companies⦠NO, they are not as successful as 2007 in general.”

Corporate Profits Hit Record High While Worker Wages Hit Record Low

A constant conservative charge against President Obama is that he is inherently anti-business. However, businesses keep defying the storyline by making larger and larger profits, rebounding nicely out of the Great Recession.
In the third quarter of this year, âcorporate earnings were $1.75 trillion, up 18.6% from a year ago.â Corporations are currently making more as a percentage of the economy than they ever have since such records were kept.
Corporations made a record $824 billion in profits last year as well, while the stock market has had one of its best performances since 1900 while Obama has been in office.
(Includes a nice chart — with colors!)

Fox Nation Headline, “Obama Re-election Layoffs Continue,” Under Banner Citing More Jobs and Less Unemployment!
Dan Clayton: “The headline is correct!! You at NewsHounds are
foolish and wrong to misrepresent reality . . . The guy is purposely trying to kill the country with his bloated spending and not solving ANY issues.”
Who’s got cognitive dissonance? ^ THIS guy! ^
