"You have to be skeptical when it comes to the press," Jim Cramer said his "Mad Money" TV show Wednesday.

TGT
Target Cp - $47.83

- $47.52
Where else has the media been wrong? He cited a headline in the Wall Street Journal that said the consumer is holding back the recovery. "But that's not true," said Cramer, who noted that Target (TGT), along with Wal-Mart (WMT) and Kohl's (KSS) all said the back-to-school season was looking better than expected.

HD
Home Depot Inc - $27.85
- +1.05%
- $27.57
Another headline warned that Home Depot (HD), a stock which Cramer owns for his charitable trust, Action Alerts PLUS, and Lowe's (LOW) were also feeling the pinch. "But that's false," said Cramer, given that Home Depot raised its guidance Tuesday and is clearly outperforming Lowe's.

LOW
Lowes Companies - $22.15

-
FDO
Family Dollar Sto - $31.48
- +1.38%
- $31.16
Cramer also called out an article saying that Family Dollar (FDO) was a good stock to own since the company's acceptance of food stamps is helping the bottom line. Cramer, though, put that company in the "Sell Block" last week, saying that Family Dollar is the worst stock to own in a recovery.

-
TJX
T J X Cos Inc - $39.07
- +0.77%
- $38.82
Still another article said that TJ Maxx (TJX) profits were up and that it was a good stock to own. Cramer was aghast, noting that company management just lowered guidance. "Be skeptical," Cramer concluded.
