Howard Kurtz - 'Real people' don't make headlines:
"...But now some important benefits have kicked in, benefits that affect real families.
--Children can no longer be denied coverage because of preexisting conditions. (Anyone wanna repeal that?)
--Insured people can no longer be dumped by insurance bureacrats who discover technical mistakes on applications.
--Lifetime caps on benefits are now outlawed.
--Adult kids can be carried on their parents' policies until they turn 26.
This is not an argument for Obamacare. But the media are not always at their best when it comes to the impact of government on real people. Unless some outrageous example of corporate heartlessness is involved, there's no conflict to chronicle..."
