From CNNMoney.com’s Jobs gains back on track:

U.S. payrolls posted a net gain of 110,000 workers in the month, according to the Labor Department report. That’s roughly in line with the forecast of a 100,000 gain by economists surveyed by Briefing.com.

The Labor Department also now estimates that August had a gain of 89,000 jobs, a big upward revision from the originally reported 4,000 job loss in August.

The July payroll reading was also revised higher by 25,000 jobs more than the earlier report. That means that there are 228,000 more Americans with jobs in this latest estimate, based on the September gain and the revisions, compared to the original reading from a month ago.

I will continue to shout this from the mountaintop – the present economy is quite strong in spite of the media’s reporting of it.

UPDATE: The spin begins: Job loss erased, but danger lurks
