Just when we thought ABC was going to give another view of Obama's UHC, ABC pulls Stossel's piece to show important news....more Micheal Jackson coverage.


Stossel’s original promo for his special clearly pointed to a no-prisoners approach to the hot-button issue.


“President Obama said that the government is going to ‘fix what is broken about health care in America.’ It sounds like a great idea, but often what sounds good has unintended consequences.


“When the government takes over, many critics say that you may not get the care and breakthroughs you need to save your life….

Liberal media will never allow real facts to be reported on. Hopefully he will appear on Fox News to do his report.

Real facts? You gotta be kidding me, some Americans are so bombarded with propaganda from the right spin on the news they wouldn't believe the truth if it hit them in the face....

Default It's MichAEl, not Micheal.

Wow, another newsmax article.
I'm sure ABC (or, better yet, Obama) murdered MJ just to cancel the show.

Since when has Stossel not presented something that was biased?

From the OP:
“When the government takes over, many critics say that you may not get the care and breakthroughs you need to save your life…."


“If the American health system remains the profit oriented industry it is, you may not get the care and breakthroughs you need to save your life….
