Is the media killing healthcare reform?

Many of us that pay attention and watch the media circus known as 24/7 cable news think they are. Watch GritTv's Laura Flanders and others talk about how the media affects the conversation on healthcare reform here on my video page.

From The Nation article:
Most agree the issue of healthcare is getting sufficient coverage and exposure in the mainstream media, but is it getting the right kind of coverage? The topic has often been belittled to another means of partisan divide, and most citizens still lack basic knowledge of reform plans in favor of rhetoric from one side or the other.

I really don't know..which side is the media on? Why do they report the lies spewed by the rightwing nutters with regard to what Obama's healthcare package will and won't do?
