Abortion and Media Malpractice

I just read an article at American Thinker on how the media totally distorts the annual March for Life in Washington D.C.

Last year, using 6 cameras, a group making a documentary were able to document that there were 350,000 participants at the March, with approximately 75% of the participants under age 25.  Of these, over half were women.  They were unable to find any pro-abortion activists, although USA Today found a few.  The author states that this year's demographics were the same as last year.  So, there were approximately 350,000 pro-life individuals vs. about 5 pro-abortion demonstrators.  Of those, about 100,000 were young women.

Still, writing for Newsweek, Krista Gesaman wrote, "Missing at the Roe v. Wade Anniversary Demonstrations? Young Women".  Rick Sanchez of CNN questioned, " "both sides being represented today, but it does appear to me, as I look at these signs that - which side is represented the most.  .. Do we know?"


While I'm hardly surprised any more by media bias, this blatant disregard for reporting the truth is pretty incredible.
