[Hissyspit]

Taped yesterday. Moore is in studio with Wolf again today.

Why didn't they show part 2 yesterday?

[babydollhead]

1. they taped it after the interview.

[Hissyspit]

2. "I didn't have to go very far to show how bad the system is here."

"Doctors hate it. They are demoralized."

Says yes, there are problems with Canadian, French, British, and Cuban systems, but U.S. media will not highlight what is right about them.

[Hissyspit]

4. "Law says you can go to Cuba on journalistic endeavors."

[Hissyspit]

5. Wolf: "Iranian news agency says that you are going to show film in Iran" Moore laughs.

Not true.

[librechik]

7. That floored me! They did it again! Tried to imply he was working w the enemy!

bastards!

[Hissyspit]

9. Moore said: "Is that from Fox News?" Laughed more.

[Hissyspit]

8. Wolf: "What do you see happening now with Iraq?"

Moore: "We have to bring our troops home..."

"I'd like to see our elected leaders - the American people gave them orders: End this war."

"Americans are not happy and Congress better figure that out."

[Hissyspit]

10. "Thank you Wolf and thank you for telling me during the break that you really liked the film."

LOL

[NYC Liberal]

3. Hope they don't try to edit it, thinking Mike won't notice or call them out!

[Coexist]

6. He is sounding great!

Laughing about the "he is going to Iran" comment.

[goclark]

11. kick for Moore

[Coexist]

12. Gupta coming up.

[goclark]

13. Gupta -paid Pharamacy Rep for CNN nt

[Hissyspit]

14. Absolutely. n/t

[Frustratedlady]

17. Gupta and Moore will be on Larry King tonight

That should be a good one if Larry will shut up and let them talk back and forth.

[NYC Liberal]

18. Now that'll make for some entertaining television!

[johnfunk]

24. Why do you think we call him Dr. Sanjay PhRMA?

[Frustratedlady]

15. Wolfe is letting him talk and is giving him a lot of compliments.

He was impressed by the film, Sicko. That's a switch.

Something's happening here.

[PA Democrat]

16. Oh wonderful. They will give Dr. Gupta the last word.

How much you want to bet it won't be an apology?

BTW, just how many reports has this guy ever done on the corrupt practices of the health insurance industry? I googled it and couldn't find any. Anyone else able to point to a single report in which the "good" doctor discusses the way they abuse "preexisting condition" rationale for denying payment, the way they put profits above ethical treatment of their customers' medical needs?

[The River]

19. He Did Admit He was Wrong

about per capita expense in Cuba.
He seems rather contrite, talking now about preventative health care
and how good it was that Sicko is bringing the issue to the forefront.
They know they got smacked down!

[Hissyspit]

22. See my post #21. n/t

[Hissyspit]

21. Did you see this in my video post?

Keeping him honest" ??? Very tacky. No wonder Moore got pissed.

Notice that in the interview with the Deloitte Health-Care Analyst guy, the 'analyst' says almost nothing, really, nothing anyone doesn't know and that wasn't addressed in 'Sicko.' People buy health care outside of the system in these other countries. Good. So what? These systems are paid for by taxes. We know! It says so in the movie. Jeez...!

By the way, about Deloitte, from their website:

http://www.deloitte.com/dtt/section_home/0,1041,sid%253 ...

Deloitte refers to one or more of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, a Swiss Verein, its member firms, and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates. Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu is an organization of member firms around the world devoted to excellence in providing professional services and advice, focused on client service through a global strategy executed locally in nearly 140 countries. With access to the deep intellectual capital of approximately 150,000 people worldwide, Deloitte delivers services in four professional areas — audit, tax, consulting, and financial advisory services — and serves more than 80 percent of the world’s largest companies, as well as large national enterprises, public institutions, locally important clients, and successful, fast-growing global growth companies. Services are not provided by the Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Verein, and, for regulatory and other reasons, certain member firms do not provide services in all four professional areas.

25. Thanks. I had been looking for this video.

I wonder if health insurance companies looking to go global are among Deloitte's clientelle?

I had an intersting thought regarding this analysts's claim about what was it 15%, of the people with universal health care buying private insurance.

I recall my mom saying something about some British friends who spend the winter here in the US complaining about having to buy private insurance for when they are in the US. Are people who buy this type of coverage included in that number?

20. If only CNN had gone after the Swift Boat Vets like they went after Mike--twice--

we would be better off today.

The ambush journalism is shit journalism.

[brettdale]

23. is thier a youtube clip up yet

On his second apperance and is he going to be on again today?

[Hissyspit]

26. 9 p.m. on Larry King. You Tube clips can take a while to show up. n/t
