Examples:
- Federal Reserve members discussing rising costs and geopolitical turmoil without providing any context or perspective on these issues creates a misleading impression that inflation is solely due to external factors rather than internal policies of the Fed.
- The statement 'stocks took a dive after March inflation data came in hotter than expected.' is misleading because it implies that the stock market was performing well before this news was released. In reality, the stock market had already been experiencing declines for several days prior to this announcement.
