Obama too hands-off on health care?
(Excerpt) Read more at msnbc.msn.com ...
Both Gregory's panel and Wallace's panel had plenty to say about how the protests were hurting either the Republican Party or the Democratic Party, but neither seemed to want to find out why the people protesting were actually so upset. Are there no investigative reporters anymore?
You could equate this kind of journalism to a film critic going to a theater and reporting on the emotions of the audience- they laughed, they cried, they cheered, but saying nothing about story or content of the film. This doesn't give a person considering viewing a film any idea if their money would be well spent in seeing it. This kind of journalistic reporting doesn't educate the American people on the quality of job their Congressman is doing.
I've gotten emails with sections of this bill noted that were really scary. When dealing with a Congress that includes members who have put their fingers in banks and financial institutions and ruined them plus forced shareholders in the auto industry to lose their life savings- why shouldn't the average tax paying American have qualms about these same people taking over their health care? Not to mention that many in Congress are considered tax evading criminals themselves, along with members who seem to get "special loans" and favors from the very institutions they legislate over. These "Congressional Crooks" stay in power and never even get their hands slapped. How can the American people trust these "lawmakers"?
There has been a lot of comments made regarding how the members of Congress have not read this bill in its' entirety. Again I ask.. Why not send a reporter to these meetings, ask who at the meeting has read the bill and what their objections seem to be? Then report those findings instead of reporting about the "angry mobs" at the event.
This is the news coverage we want. I think the American people would prefer to hear what kind of performance their elected officials are giving them rather than if Paula Abdul will be returning to American Idol.
Reporters don’t investigate anything. They call their sources.
Nope.. they're all good card carrying "Party" members.
There are a few investigative reporters, but they only look into Republicans and Conservatives.
They only investigate (R).
That would be “journalism” and we cannot have that. Much easier to get all your talking points from the White House.
In answer to you headline.....NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
The short answer is “No”. How can one tell? They report what the Democrats and Republicans say about each other but rarely report about the actual source material that each side is arguing about. It’s not difficult to understand why. Looking at the full source material on Sotomayor, for example, it’s impossible to conclude anything other than she’s a leftist and a liar.
I haven’t watched Meet the Press for 40 years.
If they start doing it now and it's seen how they covered up for Oshama during the campaign the public will turn against them in droves.
Shut them down!
Yes. I became one two months ago.
The NY-Washington power elite will never admit the people have any influence in the country. They ignore us on purpose.
For example, the 2:1 rejection of tax and spend initiatives in liberal California a few months ago received almost no press.
You will see nothing about the popular uprising against ObamCare except to paint us all as paid schills or loonies.
All of “investigative” reporters are busy scouring leftwing blogs to form a narrative based on rumor of what Sarah Palins children are up to next.
You know, the important matters of the country...
I almost bought a paper for the first time in 5 years but came to my senses when I found they have gone up to 75 cents.
In my early lifetime, there use to be journalists...they have all died unfortunately. The crop today are all propagandists pushing their agenda - reporting facts be damned.
Too bad, but at least there are others to take up the charge. The problem is that there are NO non-corrupt newspaper people around anymore...and very view internet new writers...
A bit depressed about it all... Not something that I wanted to leave to my grand-kids...

SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!!!! WHY,DOESN'T THE UTHOR KNOW THAT'S TREASONOUS, SEDITIONIST, NASTY, MEAN SPIRITED, OFFENSIVE,UNCONSCIONABLE, BIGOTTED, RACIST, AND, VERY TRUE.
Why,he might hurt some duly elected felon's feelings.
Now that’s just sad. Lack of investigative reporting is even affecting the Democratic Party with their laziness in following up on a story. In the same episode as the link above on Meet the Press, Gregory notes the “long hug” given by former V.P. Al Gore to former President Bill Clinton on his return from negotiating the release of the 2 reporters captured in North Korea and sentenced to 12 years hard labor. Gregory made a reference pertaining to Brokeback Mountain regarding the long hug.
Why couldn’t he have just said that Gore looked really happy to get his 2 reporters returned safely. You do suppose that Gregory realizes that the 2 reporters, Laura Ling and Euna Lee, work for Gore owned Current TV’s Vanguard Journalism Unit, don’t you?
Whether they actually have any or not.
Is that for real? Who compiled it and did they wade through the whole bill? WOW
I’ve checked each against the other in several random places and found the interpretation to be sound, but have not had time to compare each point.
I realize Glenn Beck is a commentator, rather than an “investigative reporter,” but he sure does his homework and brings it to light.
no
Did that asshat not see TIME's cover, "We Are All Socialists Now"?
Therefore, Meachem's saying TIME is a right-wing extremist.
And this kind of thinking is running our lives.
More likely they are sitting at their desks on their fat fanny looking through the internet until they can find a story they create their own fantasy version of.
Has Congress ever passed any “Monster size” bill that turned out to be a good bill? It also amazes me that when an “error” finally gets noticed in a bill that has been past, no one seems to know who authored that part of the bill.
Has any Congress in history ever stood on such thin ice before and election year? Are they too dumb to know this?
ping for reference. Thank you!
I’ve read in the Canadian Free Press that they have some evidence of BO putting the nix on anyone who dares to report about the BC issue. Could this be what’s up with Beck?
One thing I ‘learned’ today is to beware of a coming language change meant to appease. Something about a label: health care co-ops?? Typical of Dims...just change the name to sooth the mobs.

800 billion can do a lot of things
Reference bump - who did the analysis? ;-)
Imitative reporters? Yeah, lots. Why?
He probably does not have a clue and could really care less.
Mostly it will be from people like John Ziegler or people from the internet or talk radio.
Fair and balanced only happens once you know what both sides of an issue are. At this point you need to learn them from two different sources.
Fair and Balanced Views on Health care bill:
Obama and Democrats: "Do not read this bill. It will be GREAT and everyone will have world class low cost care. The End."
Anyone against the bill: "READ this bill! It calls for severe rationing of medical care. You will be forced to have an HMO-style primary doctor who will decide if you are allowed to see a specialist. If you are older, most of your care will be to give you pain pills and wait for you to die. Please read the bill. Also remember that we can't afford Medicaid as it now stands, and this will involve giving it to every person in the country. The public plan will do away with the private insurance plans because they will not be able to compete. Government can't run much (check out your DMV); do you want them running YOUR private medical care?"
the obvious answer is “no”.
the question is “why”.
the answer to that important question is because they’re lazy. they expect everything to be given to them. that’s why they’re so infavor of the 0bama approach...
“I found they have gone up to 75 cents.” When as a kid I delivered the local paper it would have got you three weeks of the daily paper. Most rags of today are just that rags.
NO
Well, bust my buttons. I just discovered it was my long lost cousin, Peter Fleckenstein.
They will search any dumpster, work to uncover any scandal, and mis-step and breach of ethics—as long as its Sarah Palin.
