Huge increase in growth; but the media HATES it! 12 Years, 6 Months ago  
Watching the media announce a 0.5% growth - but wanting to say "Doom, gloom, it's all a disaster"... why? Because IT'S A BETTER STORY!

The only thing that matters - IS IT A GOOD STORY?

Bimbo on BBC news said "it's flatlining". No brain.

0.5% growth is a huge increase?

Compared to last quarter's 0.1% - yes, five times as big; but nowhere near as good a story as "We're doomed!".

'A glimmer of hope for the UK as economy grew 0.5% in the past three months'

Actually for once the meejah (The Mail at least) seem to have got it into proportion.
Still a long way from what is needed to bring us out of this terrible recession.
