Is Luigi Mangione a hero for killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson? Absolutely Not

CBS News Miami's Jim Berry breaks down the controversy surrounding the murder of the U.S. healthcare executive.

The American Healthcare system is messed up. I'm an American living in Prague Czech Republic. I was hospitalized for 5 days, had gall bladder removal surgery and my "entire" hospital bill was $4, 800 "without" medical insurance. I submitted my claim and was reimbursed $4, 300. How much do you think that bill would have been in the US?

Corporate media reports their position on violence against corporate executives.

[brightestfuture]

this year 1 CEIO dead, 20, 000 customers dead

[tonyburrito]

Id like to see a public poll on whether or not luigi’s killing of the ceo made you feel bad. I guarantee over 50% of the american population would say no

[handlesrtwitterdontbelivethem]

its absolutlely not cool to deny claims

[MisterMick]

Gotta love that corporate media doesn't have a clue

[TheHollow]

How many family’s were torn apart because of this CEO? You will find no sympathy for that crook here.

[KathleenBittner-nw]

And who has your insurance, and how much do you make CBS?

[BillyBlankStare]

he changed things more than voting ever has

[unfortunsonny]

Imagine my shock when the corpos think someone who's acting against them for the people is a bad guy

[ChillCapybara]

Rich people of the media defending other rich crooks? No shock

[nt]

Someone needs to start on the people that do the same, but in the media. Like this guy, spewing propaganda while licking boots. How many families have been eliminated because of Brian? And now Berry is telling us to be sad. Hilarious.

Just clicked this video to see if comments were enabled. Now I gotta ask- what does it say about a news outlet that asks if someone is a hero, which is a matter of opinion, and posits the answer that they are "absolutely not" in all caps.

If someone who is doomed to die because they have been denied needed healthcare, receives that healthcare because of Luigi Mangione's vigilantism, then Mangione would ABSOLUTELY be a hero to them.

[maudika]

What did you think would happen by doing this? Hopfully this is ragebait because noone who lives paycheck to paycheck has much sympathy for this guy

[alexdasliebe]

Insurance companies destroy 30, 000 families a year. Anthem is covering anesthesia again, after Luigi intervened.

[day-leeperez]

Well then stop taking peoples money and doing nothing for them is that not slavery?

[Benevezzioficial]

Thanks for telling me how to think. Couldn't do it without you

[Ofminnesota]

I just cant feel bad for people that fk other people over. Ive no sympathy for insurance companies. Health care should be free and un privatized. If we have billions to send to foriegn countries for buissness purposes than there's enough to take care of the people paying all these fkin taxes.

[DanielMartinez-iuul]

I disagree nice try ! Gaslighting isn’t gonna help but make it worse 🤡🤡🤡

[coldunion]

also how does the CBS channel only have 436 views with 620k subs, corporate interests?
