Over 2,750 doctors have signed the open letter urging John McCain to provide full disclosure of his medical records. And yet the corporate press has gone to great lengths to prevent the public from discussing this issue. That's why today on Meet the Bloggers at 1pm ET/10am PT, special guest Dr. Richard Sagebiel will lead the charge for full disclosure and transparency regarding McCain's health history.

Dr. Sagebiel, a pathologist in dermatology and co-director of the UCSF Melanoma Clinic, will be joined by bloggers Cheryl Contee (Jack & Jill Politics), Charles Karel Bouley (The Huffington Post), and Ari Melber (The Nation). They will discuss how Brave New PAC's ad on McCain's medical records has been censored by the corporate press and attacked by right-wing shock jocks like Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh.
