Yeah even if your dull witted, I think the obvious would be to have "RED" for the High Death Rates, and "GREEN" for the low Death Rates.
But that CA for you ! They want to NOT stop State Taxing of Gas, but Give everyone a $400 gas card, which the Morons in CA will have to pay
for in Taxes!....

Are you really making a point about California by commenting on what colors someone filled in a bar graph on a local news broadcast? Really? I have to believe you got fed this from some right wing media person because this is about as silly as one can get.

The "Morons in CA" aren't the ones trying to make something of the color scheme of a graph apparently shown one time on TV.

I think it's about the fact that the number is 336 for 4 consecutive years. Obviously a mistake and worthy of a thread.:rolleyes:

OP wanted to give the impression that Californian news outlets are biased and deceptive.

These right wing pundit machines fabricate examples of bias for a living. Think about how a Ben Shapiro became famous for chrissakes. It gets old and to be honest, its juvenile shit in my book.

It wasn't a mistake by an MSM news station. It was a hoax perpetrated after the airing by an unknown party that appears to have been designed to fool right wingers.

This one was real, though, and it was on Fox News. (Also designed to fool right wingers, incidentally):

Huh? The graph was on mass shootings in CA, not the unemployment rate.

The conveniently misleading graph on the unemployment rate during the Obama administration was actually aired on Fox News. The graph showing a steady increase in mass shootings without a corresponding increase in numbers was never aired at all. It is a photo manipulated hoax circulating on conservative social media designed to fool right wingers into thinking that mainstream CA news media is misleading their viewers. And the OP fell for it.

Turns out the OP gives us the impression he is naïve and easily manipulated into posting bogus crap.
