Martha C. White, The Washington Independent: "While the steady rise of the nation's unemployment rate has become shorthand for the recession's impact, many economists say the grim figures - 8.9 percent in April - don't tell the whole story of Americans' financial distress. While the plight of the jobless tends to dominate social policy conversations and media coverage, a less-exposed but equally vulnerable population is the millions of underemployed."
