If you're interested in a good local discussion of Sicko for NC, look for the podcast from today's State of Things on WUNC. I really enjoyed this discussion. Adam Searing and Verla did a wonderful job countering the RW talking points from Paul Mahone.

WUNC took some local health industry experts to see the movie and they join host Frank Stasio to weigh in on everything from medical insurers to health policy. We’re talking healthcare with George Pink, UNC Associate Professor of Health Policy; State House Representative Verla Insko; Adam Searing, Director of the North Carolina Justice Center Project; David Ridley, Assistant Professor at Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business; and health insurance consultant Paul Mahonehttp://wunc.org/tsotedit: coding :P
