Healthcare reform will pass. It’s not perfect, but it is better than nothing and almost universally a good thing. Unless you’re Fox News , in which case it’s the end of the world. We’re watching their apocalyptic coverage, mystified. Fox has been peddling false information and bad journalism throughout the debate. They’ve been deliberately misinforming their viewers by featuring, and skewing towards, poorly-researched and ideologically motivated Republican talking points. Today’s coverage hit all the buttons — the emphasizing of protests, sad, resigned GOP-ers talking about rationed healthcare, the use of quotation marks in captions (it’s a healthcare “fix” according to Fox ), and the posing of ridiculously provocative questions “what is the TRUE cost of this bill — we report, you decide.” Even the New York Post — owned, like Fox , by Rupert Murdoch — is condemning them . Which is maybe the lowest moral high ground to be looked down at from. We’ll be updating this as and when the crazy happens. Here’s a lady comparing the Congressional Budget Office report on how much the bill will cost to… Enron and Madoff.
