The consumer sentiment index reportedly \u201cdropped to 54.7, worse than all forecasts in a Bloomberg survey, from 59.9 in October.\u201d University of Michigan Director of Surveys of Consumers Joanne Hsu said in a statement that \u201c\u2018Continued uncertainty over inflation expectations suggests that such entrenchment in the future is still possible.\u2019\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But the Big Three evening news shows \u2014 ABC&#8217;s <em>World News Tonight<\/em>, <em>CBS Evening News<\/em>, and <em>NBC Nightly News<\/em> \u2014 all failed to cover the consumer confidence crisis during their Nov. 11, Nov. 14 and Nov. 15 broadcasts.<\/p>\n<p>It seems the American people didn\u2019t fall for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbusters.org\/blogs\/nb\/curtis-houck\/2022\/09\/14\/positive-spin-networks-isolate-biden-blame-disappointing-inflation\">repeated<\/a> liberal media <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbusters.org\/blogs\/nb\/bill-dagostino\/2022\/10\/14\/media-desperately-spin-inflation-silver-lining-economy-strong\">gaslighting<\/a> that the economy was \u201cstrong\u201d and even that \u201cinflation is, in some ways, good news\u201d in a conversation about social security on ABC back in October.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe the Big Three had other, more important things to worry about instead? CBS ran an interview with former First Lady <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/about-the-white-house\/first-families\/michelle-obama\/\">Michelle Obama<\/a> on her \u201canxiety,\u201d NBC devoted 135 seconds to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.taylorswift.com\/\">Taylor Swift<\/a> fans crashing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketmaster.com\/?landing=c&#038;awtrc=true&#038;c=SEM_TMBRAND_ggl_298560299_24300724499_ticketmaster&#038;GCID=0&#038;gclid=Cj0KCQiAsdKbBhDHARIsANJ6-jfeROtxD3H1OxwuIch47xcxSOKyIxwDC45FtuybVtAMaPcHY-BVPPQaAqp0EALw_wcB&#038;gclsrc=aw.ds\">Ticketmaster<\/a> and ABC desperately tried to foment a civil war in the Republican Party. Apparently, those stories were more newsworthy than Americans\u2019 expressing serious concerns about\u00a0 inflation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn a new interview, former first lady Michelle Obama is opening up about her personal struggles,\u201d CBS anchor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbs.com\/shows\/cbs_evening_news\/cast\/216179\/\">Norah O\u2019Donnell<\/a> said on the Nov. 14 edition of <em>CBS Evening News<\/em>. \u201cNow that I\u2019m the Michelle Obama that people have seen and known, they can\u2019t imagine that I would have doubts and fears and anxiety but we all have them and I still do,\u201d Mrs. Obama explained. O\u2019Donnell cheered her on, saying that the former first lady \u201cworks on her mental health everyday to silence the \u2018no\u2019 in her head.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>NBC played multiple clips of teenagers crying \u201camid massive demand and frustration\u201d that they could not get tickets for Swift\u2019s upcoming concert series on Nov. 15. \u201cWith only a small number of seats on offer, it would be survival of the swiftest,\u201d NBC correspondent <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/stephgosk\">Stephanie Gosk<\/a> said, making a pun out of Swift\u2019s name. Some tickets were listed for as much as $34,000, Gosk added.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>ABC, for its part, staged a one-on-one interview with former Vice President Mike Pence that aired Nov. 15, the same day that former President Donald Trump officially <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/video\/3736771-watch-live-trump-delivers-special-announcement-at-his-mar-a-lago-resort\/\">announced<\/a> his candidacy for president at his home in Mar-a-Lago, Florida. The big takeaway? Trump and Pence are no longer friends after his \u201creckless\u201d words and actions on January 6, 2021.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Pence also hinted that he would run for president in 2024, saying that \u201che was giving it consideration.\u201d And when asked if Trump will be president again, Pence took a cheap shot at his former boss: \u201cI think we\u2019ll have better choices in the future\u201d than Trump.\u00a0<\/p>\n[embedded content]\n<\/p>\n<p><em>News Analyst Kevin Tober contributed to this report.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Conservatives are under attack.
