Media Matters didn’t like this short segment on Fox News about health insurance hosted by Melissa Francis:

That claim of ignorance wasn’t going to be allowed to go unchallenged:
Actually @mmfa I’m intimately familiar with algorithms & calculus that dictate prices in the insurance business- studied Econ @Harvard – &u? https://t.co/H10RMUKBS7

And just to rub it into MMFA a little more, Francis continued with this:
It is actually Actuarial Science that insurance companies use to determine pricing. Not Econ.
