Hmmm...haven't seen much of this on network or even cable news.

10 people show up to protest Bush, and it's all we hear about for days. Thousands and thousands show up to protest fetal homicide, and nary a peep is made in the press.

Media bias? Naaaaaahhhh....

Usually they put out a very quick article about it after the fact - with very different numbers than EWTN or other pro-life media. You'll see...they'll make it sound like just a handful of people showed up.

Hmmm...haven't seen much of this on network or even cable news.

Cable Channel, EWTN provided 4 hours of live coverage yesterday. This morning, I happened to flip around to C-Span2, just as they were playing portions of yesterday's march. It was immediately followed by the NARAL dinner from last night in Washington. The contrast was dramatic. From one frame filled with young families pushing strollers, high school & college youth, religious leaders shivering in the biting winds as they peacefully paraded towards the Supreme Court - to - a large group of well dressed personalities sitting down to dinner in an affluent setting.

One of the statistics mentioned at yesterday's march was that Planned Parenthood earned $53 million last year, strictly from abortions.

Another number you won't hear on the news is the current market price on parts of the fetus. One brain nets $999, a whole fetus is worth $1500, and so on.

I was thinking the same thing. That looks like a lot more folks than the "million-mom" thing and that got coverage for days leading up and after.
The news organizations don't dare let those who really are pro-life, but are afraid to voice it know they are not alone.
