I was looking forward to watching Frontline this week after seeing this comment posted at Balloon Juice:
This weeks edition of Frontline will cover health care around the world. They have a few trailers up, and it looks to be quite good.
Sure enough, the program guide for the national PBS feed provides the following description for this week’s Frontline:
Sick Around the World The healthcare systems of other advanced democracies could provide the United States with ideas as to how to reform its healthcare system.
…unless one’s local PBS outlet is Connecticut Public TV. This week, CPTV will carry a different episode of Frontline:
Growing Up Online The impact of the Internet on adolescence focuses on children who are harassed or bullied and those who gain attention on YouTube.
I’m sure that this discrepancy is purely coincidental given the underwriting provided CPTV by certain Hartford-based insurers, right?
I’ll break out the rabbit-ears to pick up a Massachusetts signal, or see if I can download the episode later this week, I guess.
