Reporters with the Society of American Business Editors and Writers received “training” on how to cover Obamacare’s rollout from a policy expert who works with President Obama’s former health information technology adviser.
The Commonwealth Fund’s Sara Collins claimed during the training that healthcare.gov’s chronic dysfunctionality does not signify “deeper issues” with the law.
“I don’t think it signifies deeper problems, I think it is a website issue,” Collins told SABEW during the Oct. 28 training seminar.
Her optimistic take on the law’s difficulties is unsurprising since she works for an organization led by David Blumenthal, who was President Obama’s national coordinator for health information technology from 2009 to 2011.
I am offering a web seminar for journalists on how to report all news, not just Obamacare.
“If the story is about the facts, report the facts. All of them.
If the story is about opinions, report both sides equally.”
Seminar over.
It’s greatest weakness is that it is free, thus has no credibility.
The truth has no agenda or bias. The MSM however has turned their back on journalistic integrity and truth in reporting. For them, “journalism” has been redefined as simply another term for propaganda.
