Media Bias At It's Finest: Obama's Infomercial On Health Care Reform

Republicans and critics of Democrat-led health care reform are stepping up their counter-offensive in response to ABC News' scheduled prime-time special Wednesday on President Obama's health care proposals.

The special -- called "Questions for the President: Prescription for America" -- will be a town hall-style event in which Obama will answer questions on health care posed by audience members selected by ABC News. The network has refused to accept advocacy ads during the hour-long show, drawing criticism from those who say the special will be woefully one-sided.

"It doesn't make sense to me. It seems like with health care we've got to have a debate," said Rick Scott, who heads advocacy group Conservatives for Patients' Rights. "We're going to change possibly everybody's health care in this country, so we have to have a debate. But what you want is you want all sides. So I don't understand how (ABC News) can defend what they're doing."

There's more...
The ad's you won't be seeing on President Barack Obama's ABC Infomercial: Conservatives for Patients' Rights



"End of Patients' Rights" vid talks of the consequences of government run healthcare.
It's a little over 28 minutes. Definitely worth the time.
