118: Deconstructing 'Law & Order'
Dr. Richard Besser, ABC News Medical Reporter Appointment
The hosts discuss the hiring of former acting CDC Director Dr. Richard Besser as the senior medical reporter for ABC News. They suggest that Besser, who led the government's H1N1 communication efforts, is more effective at delivering the "mission" when perceived as an independent journalist rather than a government official.
