They did it again. On Saturday, as an announcer was speaking of rockets raining down on Israel, they showed in the background what looked (to me) like an Israeli bomb hitting a house.
I agree with you. Also, the numbers don't appear to take account of inflation. In 2009 dollars, white wealth has gone from about $182,000 to $265,000 while black wealth has gone from about $11,000 to to $28,500. The claim is a dishonest misuse of the numbers.
There's something strange with those numbers: average household net worth should be higher than median household net worth. So what is "total median wealth, white family"
