Last week at American Thinker, in discussing the Dobbs case, I prophesied, “and if your media sources resemble those I’ve seen, the moral angle will be played to the hilt with stories of exceptional cases being treated as the rule.”
How right I was, as the story of a 10-year-old who was raped and had to travel to Indiana from Ohio to get an abortion was highlighted in multiple media everywhere and used to discredit the Supreme Court justices who decided Dobbs and pro-life politicians.
Megan Fox has done a fine bit of journalism exposing this propaganda coup and the Blaze details her work. Ms. Fox broke the story in a numerous series of tweets. In order to make her work easier to follow I’m reframing it in a more conventional, easier to understand way, but you are invited to the source to see how this unraveled. Each of her factual assertions is accompanied by links to them.
The sole source of the story is an ardent abortionist. The story is unverifiable and peddled by those who share her views with no apparent independent efforts to confirm the tale. If nothing else, this shows you how easy the job of a news editor at the named publications is. You don’t have to do anything -- just let your reporters rattle off the headline-framing tales of a figure who advances the desired narrative. Do not demand even the merest investigation of claims, particularly if they sound outrageous. (Like Trump hiring prostitutes to pee in a hotel bed in Moscow because Obama had slept there.)
The Megan Fox account asserts that an unnamed “child abuse doctor” called Dr. Caitlyn Bernard, an Indiana abortionist, for help. And she called the media with the account which published it without any questions asked.

“Last week at American Thinker, in discussing the Dobbs case, I prophesied, “and if your media sources resemble those I’ve seen, the moral angle will be played to the hilt with stories of exceptional cases being treated as the rule.””
This is the strategy the Left has been using for the last 50 years.
Yep. Your prediction was spot on.
If your objective is to kill babies, why would you hesitate to lie?
And people still believe all this Clown World "news" that the Media Mitts in our faces all day.
Governance by anecdote.
Most of the media is agenda driven, not truth driven. And therein lies our biggest problem.
by any means necessary
If you heard about something, anything, from the liberal media it is without a doubt made up lies and BS.
Welcome Principled.

I had posted on a website that it was all made up, and people called me sick, said I needed help,etc.
And now, here we are...
It was the perfect lie. A lie the Left wanted to believe. Due to age and Hippa, no one could verify or deny.
