Erika Stutzmen, editorial page editor at the Daily Camera retweeted this posting…
Ha: RT Andy Borowitz: Does it strike you as weird that 43 million Americans can’t get health care, but the Lockerbie terrorist can?
43 million American’s can’t get health insurance? Can’t means cannot correct? I don’t think so. I don’t even believe Erika believes this, yet she either does or was careless.
I really like the conclusion from exhibit 1…
The number of chronically uninsured people who would prefer to have insurance but can’t afford it is likely 10-12 million people, or one quarter of the number often repeated by the media. Reporters who cite the 48 million number without providing a full context do their readers a great disservice.
Bold is mine.
