Analyzing Trump’s favorability in Georgia & the 2026 governor’s race; 60 Minutes Correspondent Scott Pelley on the work of a free press

The 2026 gubernatorial race is taking shape with confirmed and potential candidates. Rose talks with Atlanta-based political strategist and analyst Fred Hicks about who we could see on the campaign trail. He also shares his thoughts about President Donald Trump’s low approval rating in Georgia. Plus, Wednesday marks 100 days into President Donald Trump’s second term, and it’s an uncertain time for the free press – especially public media. Concern about partisan oversight by Paramount Global led 60 Minutes executive producer Bill Owens to resign from the news program. Longtime Correspondent Scott Pelley followed that with a rebuke of their parent company. “Closer Look” revisits Rose’s 2019 conversation with Pelley. The award-winning journalist reflected on press freedom, democracy and the role of today’s news outlets. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

She shares what her organization hopes additional funding could be used for. Lastly, the In Her Hands guaranteed income program is expanding to reach more Black women in more Atlanta neighborhoods.

Multiple GA hospitals accused of not complying with Price Transparency Rule

Since 2021, the Hospital Price Transparency Rule has required hospitals to make their pricing information publicly available. This allows patients to shop around for the best price for their medical services. On today’s edition of "Closer Look with Rose Scott," we hear from an advocacy group that claims that of the 2000 hospitals that were reviewed nationwide, 36 hospitals in Georgia are reportedly not sharing their pricing information. We also hear a rebuttal from an association that claims hospitals in Georgia are compliant with the rule and calls the Patients Rights Advocate report “irresponsible.” Guests include: Cynthia Fisher, the founder and chairwoman of Patients Rights Advocate Brad Dennison, the director of Healthcare Finance Policy at the Healthcare Financial Management Association Shawn Stack, the director of Editorial and Policy Affairs at the Healthcare Financial Management Association See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Financial burden of some small utilities on families struggling with costly illnesses; Civil and human rights groups call SB63 “regressive”

Georgia requires some utility companies to hold off on disconnections for customers dealing with serious and costly illnesses. However, many small electric providers are not required to adhere to that policy. A new ProPublica investigation looks at the impact of not having this regulation in place. Rose talks with ProPublica reporters Aliyya Swaby and Max Blau about their report. Plus, Senate Bill 63 awaits Georgia Governor Brian Kemp's signature, but civil and human rights groups are calling the legislation "regressive." They say its expansion of cash bail and extreme limits on bail funds hosted by charities, individuals, and organizations could lead to jail overcrowding. Tiffany Roberts, a public policy director at the Southern Center for Human Rights, discusses her organization’s concerns. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
