Unemployment Not Slowing in Most Metro Areas
--------------------------------------------



New figures show unemployment has worsened or remained the same in most
metro areas nationwide. The Labor Department says the number of jobs
either dropped or remained unchanged in 204 out of 372 urban areas for
the month of October. The news comes as President Obama convenes an
unemployment summit at the White House later today.
