Readers, if you are a recovering gambling addict, please feel free to share your story. Check out the link that's in the margin to the right of this story, up top.
rejco 100, please be sure to read tomorrow's story. Your remarks suggest you will benefit by more information on the reality of gambling addiction.
Randy, we considered the issues you raised, and here is why we published the story.
The hospital knew something of this leak for months and did not take any significant action. The chairman of the hospital's board of trustees knew specifics of the leak for about 10 days and took no significant action to stop it.
Meanwhile, there's reason to believe that, day after day, private patient information is being leaked from the hospital. This puts the public at immediate risk. The hospital did not decide to take aggressive action until the Sun made inquiries.
As for seeking a headline that would turn us a profit, I note that you're reading the story online - for free.
Planet earth,
I need to stop reading some of these comments because they frustrate me so with their misinformation and insinuation.
What do you mean by "third world medical care"? The doctors participating in the visa program have Nevada medical licenses. They are as technically proficient as home-grown doctors.
And the program is intended to promote health care in areas where there are not enough doctors. Are you suggesting that we should turn our backs on foreign-born doctors who are willing to work in underserved areas and have Nevada medical licenses?
At issue, as this article explains, is how these doctors are being exploited by local employers.
Tom

artswanson,
Heather Murren indeed lives in Las Vegas; She is cofounder, chairwoman and CEO of the Nevada Cancer Institute.
When you read the line of the story, "Murren's wife, Heather, also a high-powered Wall Street analyst, had never even been to Las Vegas," that was in reference to the point in time that Jim Murren was joining MGM Mirage.
