LA Times keeping company with the NY Times, Mother Jones, Washington Post, Gannett newspapers and most big city sources as well as the major networks. One-sided, unreliable and news making rather than reporting. The other side can be equally bad at times. The truth usually resides somewhere in the middle.

LA Times, another shilly pro-Obama PR outlet.

The article you posted doesn't mention ANYTHING about Aetna existing the marketplace, or any of the big networks exiting the marketplaces. Why is that? Also why does your article post a picture of Trump as somehow being the leader of the anti-ObamaCare legions when in fact HiLIARy admitted that ObamaCare needs to be overhauled during the 2nd presidential debate last week?

Do you have an impartial bone in your body? Even liberal hero HiLIARy Clinton doesn't see ObamaCare as sustainable any longer. Yet you post an LA Times article with Trump as the main picture? Biased much?

Like I said, shilly unreliable junk news. If you rely on these outlets for your information, it's no wonder you think ObamaCare is a success.

It usually does reside in the middle, but in this case the truth is totally opposite of what NY Times and LA Times are reporting. ObamaCare has literally been imploding since the beginning of the year, so much in fact that even Democratic nominee HitLIARy Clinton has mentioned that it needs fixing anytime she gets air time.

There are literally no people outside of Obama's inner circle (not including HiLIARy anymore apparently) that think ObamaCare will not completely implode within 12-24 months in its current form.

LOL. All six articles posted are "shilly."

She never admitted it needed an overhaul. She said it needed some correction. It does.

Covered California, the state’s health insurance exchange, says that its premiums will balloon by a statewide average of 13.2 percent next year — more than triple the roughly 4 percent increases in each of the previous two years.

At the very least.

First, any repeal proposal would be subject to a filibuster in the Senate and the Democrats retain more than enough votes to stop a repeal bill. Second, the Affordable Care Act contains hundreds of provisions affecting Medicare, program integrity, the health care workforce, biosimilars, prevention, and other issues unrelated to what most Americans think of as “Obamacare.” Immediate repeal of the ACA and presumably restoring the law that preceded it would likely bring the Medicare program, for example, to a halt until new rules could be written. The ACA is inextricably interwoven into our health care system and is not going away immediately."
