YAHOO NEWS: ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF WHY YOU SHOULD ALWAYS CHECK THE MATH.

No, Mike Bloomberg’s campaign spending does not break down to $1 million per American

MSNBC anchor Brian Williams drew some criticism for a Thursday night segment, during which he mistakenly repeated a claim that former New York City mayor Mike Bloomberg could have given every American $1 million rather than having run for president. The figure is actually $1.53. The live math gaffe occurred during a discussion with New York Times editorial board member Mara Gay, who appeared to agree with Williams’ assertion about Bloomberg’s 2020 campaign spending.

MSNBC’s Brian Williams reads a tweet: 

"Bloomberg spent $500 million on ads. U.S. Population, 327 million. He could have given each American $1 million" 

NYT Editorial Board Member Mara Gay: “It’s an incredible way of putting it. It’s true. It’s disturbing”
