Everyone Is Covering The Story Now


The Louisville Eccentric Observer, a free weekly, is running a story on the terrible backlogs of people awaiting hearings on Social Security disability claims, complete with a photo of the tombstone of a claimant who died awaiting a hearing. The tombstone was bought with the man's back pay.

  1. There are no "temporary disability benefits" under SSID. This gentleman appears to have had successful treatment. Is this a real newspaper?

  2. This is absolutely a real news paper. It was founded by John Yarmouth who is now the Represenative for the Kentucky's 3rd Congressional District which includes Louisville.
