PointofLaw.com takes apart Public Citizen’s critique of tort reform

January 15, 2007

Ted Frank with more:

Doctors want safety for their patients, and most doctors make considerable personal sacrifices to achieve those results; if Public Citizen really cares about patient safety, rather than the amount of money attorneys extract from society, one wonders why they preface patient-safety reforms with offensive insults of doctors for having legitimate concerns about a broken malpractice system. The sensible fixes of patient safety and the sensible fixes of malpractice litigation are neither exclusive nor at cross-purposes.

Often being fair and balanced means giving airtime to bad ideas that don’t deserve it.
