Health Care

Bill Moyers Journal
t r u t h o u t | Programming Note

Airtime: Friday, May 2, 2008, at 9:00 PM (EDT) on PBS (check local listings at http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/about/airdates.html).

"Bill Moyers Journal" profiles the fight the California Nurses Association (CNA) has been waging over universal health care. "There shouldn't be a double standard," says Rose Ann DeMoro, executive director of CNA. "We, as the public, pay for Dick Cheney's care ... why is the government not providing the same type of care to all Americans?" Also on the program, five years after the president declared the end of major combat operations in Iraq, Bill Moyers interviews Victor S. Navasky and Christopher Cerf about their latest book, "Mission Accomplished," described as a "hilarious but depressing compilation of experts who were in error about the war in Iraq." Media and politics expert Kathleen Hall Jamieson analyzes the latest from the presidential campaign. And Bill Moyers reflects on Jeremiah Wright.
