I agree US media propaganda has been getting out of hand for quite a while and with regard to the 20% YOY sales drop for November it's no different.

Even with a minimal amount of research any media could have figured out the PS3 the year before just had a new model introduced together with a price cut. For the whole of 2008 the PS3 didn't have an actual price cut on entry pricing, of course including the holiday season.

Yet year over year sales were up 38-40% for the US for the whole year in total. So IMO the 1/5 drop for just November is not enough to turn into a blind doomsayer.

Small problems with your logic of "US Media Propanganda"

- The media is loving the Wii and its from the same country as the PS3.

- The media loved the PS2 way more then the xbox

- Accepting that there's actually some sort of conspiracy theory of journalist having an agenda against the PS3

You see, in the last gen Microsoft didn't buy propaganda because they were losing. This time they were already winning so they bought it. It makes perfect sense once you notice the black helicopters swirling around Sony's HQ.
