Romney Advisers Reveal Strategy: Ignore Journalists, Pander To Right-Wing Conspriacy Websites

By Judd Legum on Jul 1, 2012 at 12:42 pm



In a stunning interview with Breitbart.com, two top advisers to Mitt Romney revealed the campaign’s plan to largely ignore journalists in favor of right-wing conspiracy websites.

From the beginning of the campaign, Romney has pointedly avoided news outlets who might pose tough questions. The press dubbed it “the Mittness Protection Program.” As the campaign wore on, Romney has refused to answer direct questions about major policy issues central to the campaign. For example, Romney has still not stated whether he would undo Obama’s order ending deportations for many young undocumented immigrants.

go glance at the whole thing .. all in the process of DUMBING down America .. even more than they already are ... such a waste ... ;(

Manufacturing growth slowest in 18 months: Markit

07/02 09:06 AM


NEW YORK (Reuters) - The U.S. manufacturing sector grew in June at its most sluggish rate in 18 months as the pace of output, hiring and new orders all slowed, an industry survey showed on Monday.

The final Markit U.S. Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index stood at 52.5 in June, below both a preliminary estimate of 52.9 and May's reading of 54.0. June marked the lowest showing since December, 2010.

U.S. factories were hurt by weak European demand for U.S. goods. Markit chief economist Chris Williamson said that should persist "for some time to come" as Europe struggles with austerity budgets and sluggish growth.

One bright spot has been "resilient demand" from the domestic market, which Williamson said has helped U.S. factories outperform those in most other economies.

However, the slowest pace of hiring in the sector since late 2010 suggests overall job creation in the U.S. economy remained modest in June, Williamson said.
