Are they trying to put the genie back in the box?!? Unfortunately, it may be too late!
Is this media manipulation?

Maybe where you are. Our paper of record has about 50-50 finance/politics. My hometown paper tends to have local news as the front; they're pretty insulated from a lot of what goes on with the economy, so it may not be that important to the editors.
I wonder how much of it is just saturation. Are people tired of hearing about the bad economy?
