If ML thinks 5% unemployment = a recession, and you're a news organization backing a "change" candidate (let's assume that for a second), then this is a perfect story to run on the eve of the the most important primary of the election.  If you're not backing said candidate, you still get your scoop. 
 
I don't think everything is perfect with the economy, but we're not in  a recession.
