"Saved" or "Created:" Words Are Important

Months ago I noticed this tendency by the lamestream media to simply repeat job claims. One of worst expressions was this dreadful exposition about saving or creating jobs. If employees do not lose their jobs, can I claim that I saved them? No, of course not because this line of reasoning makes no sense whatsoever. However, this is precisely what Obama has claimed, and the media has let him get away with it. Now, however, respectable journalists are beginning to ask the obvious questions. How much are you actually doing to repair the economy? The WSJ has weighed in on the flighty wording largely unquestioned, so far.
