Yes it is, the revision is also a lie.

A revised estimate is not a "lie". It was an estimate.
The actual report is out for Aug:
August 2024 Jobs Report: 142,000 jobs added, an acceleration from July
Key takeaways ...
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that the U.S. economy added 142,000 jobs in August 2024, 28,000 more than in July. That said, job growth over the prior two months was revised down by 89,000 jobs. Private payrolls increased by 118,000.
The unemployment rate fell a tenth of a percent to 4.2%, driven by a reversal of the temporary layoffs that were present in the July jobs report.
The August employment report reinforces the view that the U.S. labor market is slowing but not breaking. It also appears that the "hard landing" sell-off following the July jobs report was perhaps an overreaction.
Thank you for the opportunity to teach you about the Bureau of Labor Statistics job reports.

Ok. How about this one then?
