Does CNN know there is a free health clinic in New Orleans today?

~where thousands of people are lined up to be seen by a doctor?

Has CNN covered the free health clinic in New Orleans and I missed it? I watched their morning program for an hour and did not hear anything about it. I can't find the story anywhere at their website.


If there is anybody in the New Orleans area it would be great if you could do an "i report" for them. http://www.ireport.com/?cnn=yes

As for the rest of us, I suppose we need to write to tell them we would like to see the story covered. http://www.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form5.html?92



Edited to add that I can't find the story at the MSNBC website either. Here's a link to tip them off about a story. :) http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18616878/ns/community-firstperson/

1. I e-mailed them and asked them to cover it for the residents who

may not know it's going on. It's disgraceful of them if they aren't covering it, though I'm not surprised.

2. It is a disgrace

Thanks for writing to them, they need to hear from us.

3. When Sarah the crooked arrow had her

tea bag party they demonstrated "for" health insurance outside CNN's office windows. And according to the Young Turks there was ten times the number of tea bags who were in DC. But CNN not only did not show the demonstration they didn't mention it, while given full coverage to the tea bags.

4. Free health clinics are the best kept secret in America

At least as far as the media is concerned.
Thank goodness for word of mouth.

6. I wonder if CNN and other media are silent on such free clinics because of their

Big Insurance and Big pharma sponsors.

10. I haven't heard

But I wondered last night when LOD subbed for him if he was headed for NOLA. I guess we won't find out until Monday.

12. Yes. . .

I'd link to the Times-Picayune article on it, but they only put a few of their articles online.

[TicketyBoo]

13. Yes, I believe it is.

Didn't O'Donnell say as much?

[niyad]

14. yes--or, as KO would point out, it's the one made possible by the donations of so many good people.

8. They won't because it's not their baby

Plus, they probably don't want to be accused of carrying water for liberals. They are the most gutless news network I've ever seen.

9. They're all out looking for Teabaggers. nt

11. I also sent a message and asked them to cover the story nt
