BMI Special Report -- Uncritical Condition - Network news fails to examine high cost and proven failures of government-run health care

The full report. Some highlights:
In 224 stories on ABC, CBS and NBC, the networks favored proponents to critics by a margin of more than 2-to-1 (243 to 104)
All three networks neglected to examine the failures of the Massachusetts model to insure everyone in the state and to lower costs.
ABC, CBS and NBC also ignored the failure of the nation’s first universal health care program for children. It was implemented in Hawaii in 2008, and cancelled after only seven months.
There is more than one side to the health care reform debate. Dear Leader does not have a monopoly on good ideas, nor does he have a monopoly on facts. The facts are not all on the side of a public option. There are considerable facts that weigh against a public option, and it is a disservice both to the goal of health care reform and to people in general to silence the differing perspectives.

HR3200 is costly, but most of all, because it is costly, it is not health care reform. HR3200 does not fix what's broken--and that alone makes it a bad idea.
