Free Health Clinics
Starting in 2009, in a response to the controversy over Obama's health care proposal, Olbermann, in conjunction with the National Association of Free Clinics, petitioned his viewers to donate money to provide free clinics in several major cities across the country. This effort spread to other MSNBC shows such as Hardball with Chris Matthews and The Dylan Ratigan Show, and continued on the Current TV edition of Countdown.

Famous quotes containing the words free and/or health:
“If it were possible to have a life absolutely free from every feeling of sin, what a terrifying vacuum it would be!”
—Cesare Pavese (1908–1950)
“Criticism is often not a science; it is a craft, requiring more good health than wit, more hard work than talent, more habit than native genius. In the hands of a man who has read widely but lacks judgment, applied to certain subjects it can corrupt both its readers and the writer himself.”
—Jean De La Bruyère (1645–1696)
