It's the same thing.
But I think it allows you to comment. So not only you'll have a comment button, you'll have a perspective button. So I think you're right. You know, the unfairness of... And that was supposed to be then a news report rather than an opinion.
And that's what I also think is wrong about media. You have to be fair, and that's all you ask, right? Fair and honest. And to call you on some of these things. I mean, you know, the decisions we made with regard to non-endorsement of Kamala, they...
nobody's called me on that but other but made assumptions and then you make assumptions and you make opinions based on your assumptions and then you just keep on going and then you call that news um and that's what i said we have we have to stop that i we're going to stop that and in two more weeks i think that i think the date we've set is two weeks from now. And that'll come out.
I'll write a deal, read a letter, try to explain it. It'll be AI-driven. So it'll be objective. And you'll see something.
It really is, and that's what we've offered. I've met with some of the most major newspapers of one name, and we've actually made it free for the small local newspapers if they want to.
But then we'll start this whole thing called... This could change everything. Yeah, this is the opportunity to do that.
As you know, I've been very supportive of RFK, and we can talk about that, and I'm really worried about long COVID. So we'll talk about that. Look forward to it.
Well, I think what we're going to do is literally put it live. And we've been beta testing it. So it'll be on your app. It'll be on your .com where the paper will be the paper except the homepage and everything else. You'll have live camera streaming. You'll have news. You'll have perspectives. You'll have a button that allows you to see different views. You'll have comments.
And it'll basically be a platform media, really a platform for you to interact with.
No, you'll be able to see the streaming and everything else. That'll be nice if you're a subscriber. But really, it would be available and open so that you could access it. There'll be certain things like newsletters, etc., for you to be a subscriber to. You know, I really wanted this in a funny way. One of my dreams... is to create what you call a health vault.
It would be amazing for you that if you knew where all your medications are, where your doctors are, and your life history, not just last week, of your history and physicals, and that wherever you go, you could press a button and that would be available to you in the cloud, but real time. It would be even more amazing that my view is that every patient should be an astronaut.
Today, we know we can do that. Think about that, that we can measure your heart rate in real time, measure your EKGs in real time. If you're in the ER or the ICU, the doctor could have the waveform in real time. We could actually monitor that through AI and predict whether you're going to have heart failure or not, sepsis or not. That's what we've been developing quietly.
It's in the hands right now of providers. We're putting it in, we have over a million patients on Medicare Advantage on that kind of system. The question is, how could you make this available to every American walking around on their phone as a utility in the LA Times app? That's a dream that I'm still pushing and I think I'm going to get there.
No, so let's talk about that a little bit because, you know, when President Obama was president, I actually presented this idea to him, actually. And the idea was, well, we're going to fund electronic medical records, and specifically companies like GE and such large companies. The problem is these three different medical records were in old software that don't talk to each other.
And I said, what you're going to do now is really going to create what we call concrete in the United States, where you don't know where your records are. You can't get your records. If you go to UCLA in the next week, you go to Cedars-Sinai, and the next week you're in Florida. There's no chance, right? Exactly.
The issue is what you needed was interoperability and complete access in real time. And this was doable. The other issue is exactly what you brought up. You need security. You need to make sure that your information, what we call high trust information, is secure. But the most important information is you want your doctor to have real-time information of your status
in real time, as if you were to make a decision at a point of care. And all of that is available in real, if we can actually all get together and create an interoperable system. We spent $40 billion in electronic medical records in those four years. Nothing's happened. It's just gotten worse. I got criticized by saying the Countable Care Act is neither countable nor affordable.
And because of all of this, you can't measure outcomes. If you can't measure outcomes, what are you paying for? And this sum of insurance companies and Medicare Advantage, I think billions, maybe even trillions of dollars are at waste because of that inefficiency. But anyway, it's a separate subject.
Well, Matt came to see me in 2015. We talked about this in 2015. That's how far back. And I created this thing called the rocket ship. I'll send you one day of actually integrating 21st century medicine, breakthrough medicine, which takes 17 years to get in the hands of a physician,
