Ignoring people's nationalistic/racial biases for a moment, a contradiction is somewhat normal with some economic events. Imagine there is a real estate bubble

Ignoring people's nationalistic/racial biases for a moment, a contradiction is somewhat normal with some economic events. Imagine there is a real estate bubble in some country. We'd expect articles painting a hugely positive picture of growth, and also negative articles about debt and surplus housing. Both sets of articles are valid, if perhaps cherry picking facts. Journalists like to spin things to be more sensationalized.
