In the middle of health care discussions
GEM$NBC manages to find resources to send Nora O'Donnell to Alaska to wave off Sarah Palin, but no one is sent to Virginia to cover the 3,000 people looking for some free health care.

Has a single TV or cable station sent someone to look at that heart-breaking situation.

1. why would they. they have invested a lot of time and energy into putting forward
this idea that the people don't want a public option or healthcare reform and that everyone just LOVES their healthcare.

4. Well we do know that the truth has nothing to do with news coverage
If they don't show it, it's not happening.

3. Those 3,000 People Don't Buy Commercial Time...
The corporate media shows time and time again how they're a tool of the large corporations. I totally jetisonned Chicken Noodle Nuze here largely in part of the phony arguments they made against MM and Sicko. Thank goodness Dr. Guptha isn't a part of this debate...you could just see the insurance company and big pharma money falling out of his pockets.

:hi:
