Increasingly there are a lot of stories that contradict one another in the same newspaper and on the same day. This reporting regards the state of the economy and usually centers on a quote from several prominent market prognosticators. In other words, the news stories are not factually based, but opinion based. The opinion leaders are using facts to justify their opinions, but the nature of the stories is subjective.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">This is very interesting. Why?

The reason I say this is because popular opinion being mixed is a reflection of a mixed economy.
