CBS Loves Buttigieg’s ‘Moderate’ Health Care Plan: ‘Sounds Pretty Good!’

[See NewsBusters for more.] CBS This Morning journalists on Tuesday credulously promoted 2020 Democrat Pete Buttigieg’s “moderate”-sounding health care plan: “Sounds pretty good,” touted co-host Tony Dokoupil The CBS hosts all liked the selling of the plan as “Medicare for all who want it” as opposed to Medicare for all.  “I love the phrasing,” cheered Anthony Mason. Reporter Ed O’Keefe hailed, “[Buttigieg is] hoping to gain support for sure and definitely wants to talk up this idea because he sees it as a more moderate alternative to Medicare for all.” O’Keefe didn’t explain that his plan may sound moderate only in terms of being compared to, say, outright socialism of Bernie Sanders.
