Hi Bill, KCRW wants to create the best experience for our listeners looking into what the reason for the mis-tagging are and how to fix. Thanks!

Thanks for your comment Nathaneal, the "error" has been fixed!

Re-posted by KCRW on behalf of Lynn:
While I often agree with Dr. Wilkes' commentaries, I found this one to be extremely offensive, filled with lies and deceptions, and inappropriately and shamelessly political. Wilkes referred to the Komen Foundation (without having the courage to name them) as having "turned against women" for their decision to stop future funding of Planned Parenthood, but like most in the liberal media, Wilkes gave no context for the decision: PP is under Congressional investigation for possibly using federal funds to pay for their abortion services. To withhold support for a group that is under a cloud of suspicion means they have "turned against women"? Without context for the decision, Wilkes lies by omission.

Further, he states that women have the "right to make their own reproductive choices." No one is stopping them, but that hardly means their contraception should be free. Besides, don't organizations such as Planned Parenthood, which is lavishly funded, exist to help underwrite birth control? Or do they only like to pay for abortions? One wonders why the group is even called Planned Parenthood, when 9 of 10 women they see who are pregnant end up with abortions. Isn't that really planned abortionhood?

No, Dr. Wilkes, women's freedom to make their own choices is not dependent on their getting birth control with no deductibles, and I have no clue why any reasonable person should think so. Do we also have the right to get antibiotics with no deductibles? Why is birth control more sacred than human life? Most of us are fed up with the entitlement mentality in which a growing segment of society expects things for free that the rest of us who are struggling mightily with our own bills must pay for. Sex should be a grown-up activity, and if you are old enough to engage in something so consequential, you ought to be able to cough up the small change for birth control. Why not ask the boyfriends or husbands to pay for it if the young women cannot afford it? Why should I?

I am willing to bet that the vast majority of young women who claim that $30/month for birth control is "too much" spend easily that much on other things they want or feel they need: a movie and a pizza, a manicure or pedicure, a few trinkets at the mall.

Finally, a society that devalues nascent human life and treats it so cavalierly is a society in deep moral decline. These days people like Dr. Wilkes are probably more concerned about printing out an email out of deep concern about a felled tree than they are about snuffing out a human life.

A most dishonest segment, and one that fails to consider as most other of your podcasts have done the more holistic and long-term consequences of
health care decisions.

Dianne,
You're so right. This image was uploaded before our guests were confirmed -- and it is confusing. There is no relationship between the two companies that we know of. A new image will be up soon.
