This happens every year....

Half the country could show up on the streets of Washington for the March for Life and would receive little if no coverage from the main networks.....and if any numbers are given, it would be far fewer than what is truly represented.

HOWEVER, if some mealy mouth small, as in tiny, as in less than half a dozen, liberals show up for anything....

...well...you know the rest of the story.

[Cicero]

For more than 25 years, the annual March for Life has been the most underreported event in America.

Typically, they turn their cameras away from 50,000 or sometimes several hundred thousand marchers, and intstead interview the couple of dozen pro-abortionists picketing across the street. They NEVER show pictures of the large crowds of pro-lifers.

It's one of the biggest stories of our generation, totally ignored because it's not "News that's fit to print."

INTREP - "Murder, Inc." ALERT

[LearnsFromMistakes]

ABC News chose to cast the pro-life movement in the most negative slant it could scrounge up

Don't sell them short...

[Starboard]

You gotta love the headline:

ABC News Accused of Biased Coverage...

[ReleaseTheHounds]

I heard a local (Washington DC) ABC radio report on the march... They noted the large numbers (I thought they estimated around 50,000 not 100,000) at the beginning of the report, but then interviewed one of the 12 Pro-Choice counter-protesters and gave her about a 30 second sound-bite to get out her propaganda. No interviews with for a representative of the 100,000 Pro-Lifers.

bumping the Truth

ABC News Accused of Biased Coverage of Abortion, Pro-Life March.

What else is new.That is like saying that the sun rises in the East.

ABC news are but one in a long line of organization and individuals [I would put the democrta party at the top]who desparately want to rid this Nation of every shred of decency.

They had rather the Taliban run this Nation than President Bush and are actively working 7 days a week and 24 hours a day to bring this about.

Of course, when they get it they won't want it, but, it will be too late then.

Dear m1-lightning,

"where more than 100,000 people"

My own back-of-the-envelope calculations, derived in part from looking down from the top of Constitution Avenue at the mass of humanity filling the boulevard from the Capitol to past the Washington Monument, was closer to 200,000.

Media Bias alert

[Salvation]

I wonder if ABC even knows that Norma Corvey is now Catholic and no longer supports Roe vs. Wade?

Roe No More -- Dedicated to spreading the truth, to know things as they are.

Biased coverage? ABC? I can't tell you how surprised and shocked I am. Why isn't this under Breaking News?

another action alert is for FReepers to understand the importance of the Supreme Court. The justices are getting OLD. The Senate is very important, and getting Bush reelected is more important.

Here's a letter I sent W last year.

Dear President Bush, With the Surpeme Court session getting ready to close, it may well be time for perhaps the most important domestic decision of your presidency: the appointment of a Supreme Court Justice(s). The main reason why I supported you in 2000 and why I wanted Daschle out of power in 02 (and 04) has to do with the courts. I want America courts to interpret law, not write law. During your presidential campaign you said Thomas and Scalia were your two model justices. Those are excellent models. The High Court needs more like them. Clarence Thomas recently said to students that the tough cases were when what he wanted to do was different from what the law said. And he goes by the law. This should be a model philosophy for our justices. Your father, President Bush lost his reelection campaign for 3 main reasosn, as far as I can see. 1. he broke the no new taxes pledge 2. David Souter 3. Clinton convinced people we were in a Bush recession (which we had already come out of by the time Clinton was getting sworn in)

I urge you to learn from all three of these: 1. on taxes, you're doing great. Awesome job on the tax cut. 2. good job so far on judicial appointments. I want to see more of a fight for Estrada, Owen, and Pickering, but I commend you on your nominations. 3. by staying engaged in the economic debate you'll serve yourself well

I have been thoroughly impressed with your handling of al Queida, Iraq, and terrorism. You have inspired confidence and have shown great leadership.

But I want to remind you that your Supreme Court pick(s) will be with us LONG after you have departed office. I urge you to avoid the tempation to find a "compromise" pick. Go for a Scalia or Thomas. Don't go for an O'Connor or Kennedy. To be specific, get someone who is pro-life. Roe v Wade is one of the worst court decisions I know of, and it's the perfect example of unrestrained judicial power.

I know the temptation will be tremendous on you to nominate a moderate. But remember who your true supporters are. I am not a important leader or politician. I am "simply" a citizen who has been an enthusiatic supporter of you. I am willing to accept compromise in many areas of government but I will watch your Court nomiantions extremely closely. What the Senate Dems are doing right now is disgusting, but as the President you have the bully pulpit to stop it. Democrats will back down if you turn up serious heat on them.

Moreover, I think public opinion is shifting towards the pro-life position. Dems will want you to nominate a moderate, but almost all will vote against you anyways. Pro-choice Repubs will likely still vote for you if you nominate a Scalia, after all, you campaigned on it. So Mr. President, I urge you to stick with your campaign statements and nominate justices who believe in judicial restraint, like Scalia and Thomas.

Happy Memorial Day and may God bless you and your family.

at church last week, the pastor announced Sanctity of Life day. Then the next week he told us their was a woman who was considering abortion, she heard him speak on it, than she decided to go to a crisis pregnancy center, decided NOT to get the abortion, and she gave her life to Christ!
