[quote name='Msut77']Depends on what you mean by "the" system, the healthcare system or the insurance system. Nationalizing either isn't technically necessary or even on the table.[/QUOTE]
FNC has been horrible about this -- they've spent weeks attacking universal healthcare and saying that's what Obama/Dems want, implying (sometimes directly stating) that that's what the dem healthcare reform is... shit like that should be illegal.
They're going for ratings, which means being controversial, I understand that, but a lot of people do watch, and their opinions are being shaped by what a news channel perpetuates as truth, it should be illegal to outright lie about what something is like that. I don't expect them to call a spade a spade but they should at least call it some sort of gardening tool, they shouldn't be allowed to claim it's a sexual device used to rape babies. Should I be allowed to start a news channel and, amongst credible news, make falsified reports about Rupert Murdoch? Maybe I should... follow credible stories about Iran and the economy with a story about how Murdoch's a gay atheistic communist trying to destroy America because his middle eastern mistress asked him to... or would that be slander? It's okay to lie to voters about congress is doing, but not okay to lie to them about what a person is doing?
