In the previous blog, I talked about the free pass Zimbabwe has gotten, so far, regarding the killing of Cecil the lion.\’
Now let\’s talk about Planned Parenthood\’s free pass.
Yesterday, the Center for Medical Progress issued its fifth in a series of undercover videos (with more certain to come), in which a major Planned Parenthood executive made it clear that she viewed aborted babies – not globs of fetal tissue, but fully formed babies – as nothing more than commodities to be pulled apart and sold piece by piece – much as a chop shop sells discarded automobides.
Here is part of what it showed, courtesy of an excerpt from Curtis Houck\’s blog at newsbusters.org:
Doing the work that the networks showed no interest in doing, Bream reported that this installment features a Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast official named Melissa Ferrell who\’s identified as the director of research for the Houston-area abortion clinic.
Speaking with the undercover actors, Bream explained that Ferrell “talk[ed] with actors posing as fetal tissue who ask, if abortion procedures can be changed in an effort to get a more beneficial result for the buyers.”
Following a clip from the video where Ferrell openly (discussed) the possibility of changing the abortion procedure “to obtain intact fetal cadavers,” Bream brought up how federal law stands in contrast to what\’s talked about in the video…
As you can see, Melissa Ferrell is dealing not in “women\’s health”, but in sales. Sales of baby parts.
How much for each part? Let\’s negotiate. Let\’s make a deal. Want the whole body intact? Hey, make me an offer.
And how did the networks cover this news?
I can answer that in two words. They didn\’t. Not one of them did a story on it.
But they sure did run stories on Cecil the lion, didn\’t they?
I will now ask the same questions I asked in the previous blog: This is how mainstream media cover the story? This is what passes for journalism today?
Sadly, the answer to both questions is yes.
