I thought this →[More:]was a really crappy follow-up to
this and apparently
I'm not the only one.
Part of the confusion in the piece may have stemmed from the departure of T.R Reid, a Washington Post correspondent who hosted Sick Around the World. Reid was to host this one too, but he left the show this February in a dispute with Frontline. Reid told me: “When I saw it, I didn’t agree with it. It took a different view of health policy than I have.” He refused to say what the differences were, adding that “it’s hard to reduce them down to a line or a paragraph. It’s perfectly legitimate to disagree about health policy.”
Reid, in my view, is what made the first one so great. It's too bad.
