Dave Lindorff — "Now I get it!": Katie Couric's Hit Job on Social Security

Katie Couric, a veteran TV journalist and currently global anchor for Yahoo News, just trashed Social Security in a hit piece misleadingly called "Explaining Social Security" that purported to be explaining the system's financial "crisis." Far from explaining the system, she trundled out tired falsehoods and scare tactics long used by the system's enemies -- notably the Republican Party and including many Democrats in the pocket of Wall Street. (Significantly, the online video was sponsored by a Merrill Lynch/Bank of America, hardly a fan of Social Security.)

First, Couric's long list of whoppers….

Calling BS on US media propaganda based on disinformation to dupe the rubes, who have already been duped into believing that the economic problems of the US begin with public debt.
