Is corporate PR killing true health care?

On the next Your Call we'll talk with Wendell Potter, author of Deadly Spin. A former executive of CIGNA, Potter is now an outspoken critic of the health insurance industry and its massive PR machine, which he says uses tactics from euphemisms to third party front groups to protect profits over patients. Has corporate media spun you around on the health care debate? Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. How can we see through the spin and fight for real reform? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guest:
Wendell Potter, senior fellow on health care at the Center for Media and Democracy and author of Deadly Spin: An Insurance Company Insider Speaks Out On How Corporate PR Is Killing Health Care and Deceiving Americans.
