Story summary

On October 6, the U.S. released its latest jobs report showing a 263,000 job increase for September, which was lower than economists' expectations of around 500,000 new jobs. The White House responded to the underwhelming figures by emphasizing other aspects of economic recovery and pointing out improvements in unemployment rates among minorities. Meanwhile, at Cornell University, a student who is also a mother faces an ongoing rape investigation that has gained attention but is not directly related to the jobs report or its political implications.
