Wow, that is some tasty link-bait, nicely done CNN.
Considering that the article goes on to disprove its own headline - eg it says women are NOT out-earning men, but MIGHT sometime this decade with their specialized data set - I call "flag".
And then we've got some gems from the article :
"Mundy's research shows that women are out-earning men all around."
Thank goodness for Mundy - because 143 of 144 articles referenced in Wikipedia on this subject are showing completely opposite data:

Or alternatively a nice display built on the Census Bureau's data:

This is a PR factory article, designed to sell copies of a book by being contrarian, glad that our media (and HN voters) are picking it up and republishing as truth!
