CNN continues to mislead on Social Security

CNN economics correspondent Kathleen Hays and CNN anchor Kyra Phillips continued CNN's pattern (see here and here) of reporting false and misleading information on Social Security. Hays repeated her false claim that under the current system, the family of a would-be beneficiary who dies before retirement is not entitled to the decedent's benefits; Phillips wrongly equated President Clinton's 1999 plan to invest a portion of the Social Security trust fund in the stock market with President Bush's plan to divert a portion of Social Security payroll taxes into private accounts and cut the program's guaranteed benefits.

2. Rush is bi - perhaps gay - I wonder about Kyra as she is said to be
"bedding" him.

Makes one wonder which rumor is false - or how they are both true.

But in any case. Kyra's bias seems obvious.

3. Rush could easily be bi or gay and dating Kyra as a front
Of course, just because someone dates the opposite sex or is married doesn't necessarily rule out their being gay.
