The Cloud in Every Silver Lining

Drop in poverty: bad, bad news.

From the Media Research Center:

Though the AP headlined its story, "U.S. poverty rate declines significantly," NBC anchor Brian Williams reported it dropped "a bit" and CBS anchor Katie Couric relayed how "the poverty rate is down slightly." And while most of those in poverty manage to have many comforts of life, from good-sized homes to cars, Couric insisted poverty level income is "hardly enough for food and housing, much less other items like health insurance."

Know that when a Republican is in the White House, the "mainstream" media will always find a cloud in every silver lining.
