Obamacare and the media

Since the enactment of Obamacare the media has put a spotlight on the failures that it has brought with it ...every program has room for improvement and failures and difficulties are to be expected

Has the media heighten the many struggles of Obamacare?

TSA and privacy ????

The good ole TSA agents....

The media seems to paint TSA agents in a very negative light do you agree with the perception of TSA agents

Does TSA have to much authority when accessing travelers personal information. Are our 4th Amendment rights being violated or is the media painting TSA agents out to be something they are not ?

A few articles to look at below


TSA can access your personal information even before you step foot in an airport..

Media Coverage Ban

Brief update on my first post about the media coverage of the Jodi Arias murder trial a judge has banned all live television coverage on the penalty phase retrial, in addition, no one in the courtroom is allowed to have any type of electronic device.

Jodi Arias defense attorney's argued she would not get a fair penalty phase trial giving all the media attention and wanted to move the case to the Phoenix area for a more impartial jury ......that argument was denied by the presiding judge

Media coverage and high profile cases what are the effects??
