FLASH: Foreclosures soar a shocking 87% vs. last year. But of course REIC-advertising-supported MSM will report drop in foreclosures today

Here's Yahoo's spin via Reuters (gotta take care of REIC advertisers like LendingTree) and homepage headline:

Home foreclosures fall seven percent

And here's the SF Examiner doing their job, unlike their corrupted peers:

Foreclosure activity rises dramatically - Bay Area defaults, auctions, repossessions nearly triple; nationwide notices are up 87%

And here's some of the lowlights from the actual RealtyTrac report:

RealtyTrac today released its June 2007 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report, which shows a total of 164,644 foreclosure filings -- default notices, auction sale notices and bank repossessions -- were reported during the month, down 7 percent from the previous month but still up 87 percent from June 2006

Nevada, California, Colorado post top foreclosure rates
. With one foreclosure filing for every 175 households in June, Nevada documented a foreclosure rate more than four times the national average and highest among the states for the sixth month in a row.

Other states with foreclosure rates ranking among the nation's 10 highest in June were Florida, Arizona, Ohio, Michigan, Georgia, Connecticut and Indiana.
