AP Shocker: 'Tax Bills For Rich Families Approach 30-Year High' - Noel Sheppard/Newsbusters

Imagine that. The AP published an article which included the sentence "It’s middle- and low-income families that aren’t paying as much as they used to."

...the Associated Press ...shockingly published a piece Sunday titled ◼ "Tax Bills For Rich Families Approach 30-Year High":
President Barack Obama and Democratic leaders in Congress say the wealthy must pay their fair share if the federal government is ever going to fix its finances and reduce the budget deficit to a manageable level.

A new analysis, however, shows that average tax bills for high-income families rarely have been higher since the Congressional Budget Office began tracking the data in 1979. It’s middle- and low-income families that aren’t paying as much as they used to.
