The US economy is performing amazingly well, but as Bloomberg's Matthew Winkler notes, the public overall doesn't realize that. Why?

He alludes to the key reason for the public's lack of understanding, but doesn't make clear what it is, so allow me to be clear that "media narrative" doesn't explain who's primarily at fault.

The culprit is Big Journalism, again utterly failing to do its job.
