Liberal Media Bias

Another fine example of liberal media bias.

MSNBC headlines:
White House urges Social Security cuts
Bush administration urges Social Security cuts
Report: Fix requires combination of benefit changes and tax increases

FOX News headlines:
Bush Administration: Tough Decisions Await Social Security
Bush Administration Says Social Security Fix Lies in Cutting Benefits or Raising Taxes
The Bush administration said Monday the only way to permanently fix Social Security is through some combination of benefit cuts and tax increases.

CNN was silent on this news. I guess they don't feel that the looming Social Security trust fund bankruptcy is important. The reports on MSNBC and FOX are the result of a new study by the Treasury Department which says among other things:
"Social Security can be made permanently solvent only by reducing the present value of scheduled benefits and/or increasing the present value of scheduled tax increases," the paper said. The Treasury paper said that while other changes to the giant benefit program might be desirable "only these changes can restore solvency permanently."

I find it interesting how MSNBC made it appear that the President is recommending cuts in Social Security benefits. Interesting how the liberal media bends the truth.
