Insurance Industry Whistleblower Wendell Potter Blasts Senate Panel Rejection of Public Insurance Option

Efforts to create a government-run health insurance plan were dealt a setback Tuesday after the Senate Finance Committee rejected a pair of amendments to create a public option. Both amendments were defeated when a group of Democrats, including Senate Finance Committee Chair Max Baucus, joined with Republicans to oppose the public option. We speak with Wendell Potter, the former chief spokesperson at CIGNA, one of the nations largest private insurers, and now one of the health insurance industrys most prominent whistleblowers.
