[See NewsBusters for more.] Good news! The Consumer Price Index shows the skyrocketing rate of inflation has ticked down from 8.5 to 8.3. Are you not excited? According to the hacks at NBC and CBS, this means party time! In reality, the numbers are bad all around as anyone other than a Joe Biden spinner would admit. On CBS Mornings, co-host Nate Burleson conceded the bad news, but led with the tiny decrease in the rate of inflation: “There's a small glimmer of hope for Americans struggling with rising prices. The rate of increase in inflation slowed very slightly last month, though the annual figure was still close to 40-year highs.”
