Typical observation re: Fox News Bias

Every single news media I have looked at, about a dozen, have headlines re:
**US jobless rate falls to 7.8% and
**114,000 jobs added
except for Guess Who?
See:
http://www.foxnews.com/
Their headlines say instead:
"Biden Promises $1 Trillion Tax Hike for Top Earners" and
"Why Jobs Outlook is Grim"
So, as usual, Romney isn't the only one who lies. How can jobs outlook suddenly be "grim". And just because the Bush Tax Cuts are about to expire, this really has nothing to do with Biden.

It seems that they would want to be less obvious, wouldn't it?

...and they feel completely justified in doing so to "balance out the other side" (which is not actually doing that).
