Our colleague Julie Wernau covers health and medicine.
And for the last few weeks she's been writing about the United Healthcare CEO who was shot and killed in midtown Manhattan earlier this month.
This is something that really seems to have struck a chord with almost everyone.
It is this singular moment where literally everyone is talking about the same thing.
The killing sparked a broader conversation about the role of insurance companies in the healthcare industry.
And that conversation has found its way into Julie's inbox.
She's been getting a ton of emails, many of them from people who are frustrated with their insurance companies.
And one thing Julie's been surprised by was how many emails she's received from doctors.
Can you just walk us through some of them and like, maybe quote a couple?
