At the Reynolds Journalism Institute (rjionline.org), 2009-2010 fellow Michael Skoler writes: "The YouTube video linked below of Jonathan Rauch's "If Air Travel Worked Like Health Care" essay from the National Journal is brilliant. It explains the problems with health care in ways that news reports just don't. And knowing Rauch, every line is an accurate analogy to health care laws and regulations. I think this is journalism at its best - but it's fiction and presented as a drama. I've worked in this style before at NPR." What do you think?
