First Drip (11/7/13): Detroit woman shot after car accident, no insurance for low-income pregnant women, more

Posted By on Thu, Nov 7, 2013 at 10:12 AM

A black woman was shot to death in Detroit for asking for help in a predominantly white neighborhood after she had a car accident. Sound a little familiar?

Our cover story this week: Even when Obamacare kicks in, many of N.C.'s most vulnerable - low-income pregnant women - will be left without insurance.

A NCDOT contractor was fired yesterday for sending out traffic alerts that warned drivers "stay home" because of "women drivers, rain, Obama Care" while performing routine tests on the Traveler Information Management System.

Two candidates won their respective local elections in Washington state - even though they're dead.

Happy birthday, Billy Graham.
