Opinionated report about the latest news on the health care debate. This 9 minute video segment includes coverage of Betsy McCoy's crusade to cut health care costs, Governor Schwartzenegger's recent endorsement of health care reform, and an interview with Connie Schultz, the progressive columnist from the Cleveland Plain Dealer. While this report is generally factual, it is not very fair, favoring liberal perspectives at each step of the way, and as a results offer insufficient context from limited sources.

My own political viewpoint is usually aligned with liberal causes, but I am uncomfortable with the type of opinion news which Rachel Maddow provides. Despite her wit, I have become turned off by her consistent partisan bias, which I find grating and counterproductive.

An unabashedly liberal perspective and horse-race reporting. The entire framing of this segment is about health reform victories over "the forces against reform."
