Perusing New York Times articles directly related to the topic of price inflation, one can find an “Inflation FAQ” purporting to explain what inflation is and what causes it.
As an example, a February 29 article by Jeanna Smialek titled “A Key Inflation Measure Moderated in January” featured the FAQ below a lead paragraph claiming that “price increases are coming back under control”.
Naturally, there is no explicit acknowledgment from the Times that the price inflation occurring after the implementation of COVID‑19 lockdown measures was a consequence of the monetary “stimulus” used to pay the costs for the government’s lockdown madness.
This, of course, is because the Times was a cheerleader for the lockdown insanity and is a steadfast cheerleader for the Fed’s inflationary monetary policy.
