A website that is simply a must read every day (for news you will not see in the mainstream press).
This article examines "talking points" -- false ones issued by insurance companies -- and how the mainstream press failed to challenge them, resulting in misconceptions by Americans about health care reform.
"The talking points are designed to be simple, catchy, and memorable. Think government takeover of healthcare, death panels, and socialism."
It's a great reminder of the need for independent media.
