"I had a terrific office in a high-rise building in Philadelphia..."
(full interview at Bill Moyers Journal)
Daily Kos also has a nice breakdown

From Michael Moore’s website:
This interview
“…will expose for the first time the health insurance industry’s secret campaign against Michael Moore and his film, “Sicko.” It contains a stunning revelation and admission by a top health insurance executive — the former head of publicity for CIGNA, one of the top health insurance companies in the country — that the disinformation and attacks on Michael and the film were extensive and well-planned. Their job was to stop the movie from reaching a wide audience (and, more importantly, from having the widespread political impact the industry feared “Sicko” would have). Wendell Potter, former Head of Corporate Communications at CIGNA (which provides health insurance to nearly 70 percent of the Fortune 100 companies) admits that, in fact, “Sicko” “hit the nail on the head” and told the real truth about how much better people in other countries have it when it comes to their health care…”

If, by chance, you’ve never seen “Sicko,” then go ahead and Netflix it, Amazon it, or even just watch it for free.
