You should have challenged this claim well before now. You should have been reporting that some people in the individual insurance market might receive cancellation letters … well before it started happening to them….As Trudy Lieberman noted in her article for Columbia Journalism Review, and as some noted as early as 2008 (1), it has been known for a long time that millions of Americans would not be able to keep their health insurance under the Affordable Care Act. Yet President Obama and many other proponents of the ACA claimed this would not happen. They said people who liked their health insurance could keep it.
