Question by c(^-v-*)o: Could the people that write the jobless claim/unemployment articles stop using the word “unexpected”?
I watched these reports come out for the last 15 months or so and about 85% of the time they describe the results as “unexpected”.

So why don’t they just admit they don’t know what is going to happen and just report the damn number?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits rose more than expected last week, pointing to a labor market that is struggling to regain momentum.

They have to use unexpected because they thought the rose colored glasses Obama handed out to bot would really work. Folks like me expected the situation we have now as soon as it looked like Obama was going to be elected. So far that it the only place we haven’t been disappointed.
