Notice that this is household income, and not individual-earnings:
The reason that White-media prefers doing it this way, is simply because you’re more-likely to find single-income households among Whites, & hiding that fact behind selective statistics pushes the preferred narrative.
A few years ago The Economist tweeted the average White vs Black incomes, not household, but individual.
Blacks made about 53% of what Whites made.
THAT was when I realized the whitewashing going-on in the statistics, by refusing to focus on the actual disparity, & hiding that disparity by ignoring & hiding that nonwhite households more-commonly had 2 incomes, to make ends meet…
“Lies, Damned-Lies, & Statistics” is especially true when machiavellianism & prejudice are involved.
Not listing cost-of-living for each state makes the above numbers … contextless, too.
Have higher standards for what you trust, than politically-convenient oversimplifications, please: you deserve integrity in journalism.
