I was just getting ready to produce today's Radio or Not podcast when I got a call from Air America. Ron Reagan is under the weather, so I'll be filling in... So, tonight, it'll be a live, 3-hour edition of Radio or Not... I hope you'll listen on the radio or online at www.airamerica.com from 6-9pm eastern!

Great news, and I should be able to listen to most of the show.
Just a few things happened this week, might give you 3 hours worth of material ... or 6 ... or 12 ...
Caught you on AA today...I really hope to see/hear health care issues daily everywhere. I know the conservative-biased media will avoid any (positive) coverage on health care.
My company-subsidized retiree health care premiums (three of us in the family, BTW) started out in 2007 being 19% of my net pension (our only real income and its only in the low $30k gross range). As of January its now 46% of my net pension.
We no longer have any discretionary income. A part-time job? Yeah...right...
I'll gladly take your $700 premium.
We could do without the insurance but at the first illness or accident we'd lose everything. OPTIONS? Yeah...right...
WE THE PEOPLE need relief and I encourage you and every other media person to continue to raise the clarion call for universal health care, a single-payer system.
G'luck
