Grace Marie Turner lied about Canada's Health Care

[ensho]

Grace Marie is with the Galen Inst. and was on Wash. Journal this a.m.

she said Canada Health Care "rationed care". which is so much hooey.

Canada's Health Care must be the most maligned health care in the world, by america's neo cons and propagandists. I would think Canadians would be tired of it.

Grace Marie also bad mouthed our medicare and medicaid. she propagandizes for private insurance.


a caller asked Wash. Journal to please put someone on that is for single payer. wonder if they will.

I'm sure Galen rolled in his grave.

2. corporate phonies being paid to lie on US Media

I hope they all have misery in their own lives. They sure act like miserable people.

3. C-Span exists entirely

to muddy the water and promote right wing causes. Every day the hosts read highlighted excerpts from articles favoring the right wing perspective. This could not be more clear. I have expressed my outrage to C-Span.

4. Don't "express your outrage to c-span

You are wasting your time and playing into their hands. They will use your phone call and email as part of stats to show advertisers how many people are responding to their shows.

Write or email blast the corporations who are sponsoring them and get your friends to do the same. Corporations only listen to money.

I do not spend a thin dime with any company that advertises with Fox or C-span and they all get letters explaining that and why and that I will shop with them if they change their ad placements. I even give them alternative companies to advertise with. If everyone did this then the money would leave the gasbags.

6. Make The Outrage Viral...

CSPIN has no sponsors other than the cable industry...who use these channel to insulate themselves from possible regulation and to astroturf their pet issues and causes under the guise of "public affairs".

The people who need to know this are the many who inhabit the internet and aren't aware of this bias. It's putting up threads like this on message boards, sending emails and spreading the word. CSPIN has been confronted with their bias in the past and ignored it...maybe if enough people start talking about the right wing connections, they may cool their jets...if not, then the charade of CSPIN being a "public affairs" network is exposed.
