Former Blue Cross Commercial Actor Denounces Insurance Industry

You may know Andy Cobb from the series of humorous video sketches he’s done about Republicans, the media, and assorted inanities. But he works by day as an actor. And a few years ago, he was a commercial spokesman for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida. Now, he’s speaking out about the insurance industry in a new video produced by Brave New Films for their Sick For Profit campaign.

Andy, who lives in Los Angeles, describes himself as a “spokesjerk” put in front of the cameras by the industry to deliberately stand in the way of reform and maintain the status quo. He asks for solidarity from spokesjerks like him – the Sham-wow guy, for example – to stop pitching products that rip off Americans.

More on this at The Huffington Post.

    Ha! Sipple the molester is still here! What a pathetic blog this has become, no comments at all. Wow. What a failure. Just goes to show that when you censor you fail.

    Sunday morning 6:30 am over here and I have just heard the big news... well done America.

    Nice start but keep on pushing forward.

    I am watching Fox News today, just to see their heads explode :)
