Only ABC Cites 'Devastating' CBO Judgment & 50%+ Tax Rates to Pay for Health Care

Of the broadcast network evening newscasts on Thursday only ABC's World News related how, as Jake Tapper put it,

“Congress's chief budget analyst delivered a devastating assessment yesterday of the health care proposals drafted by congressional Democrats,”
