Two Women Die After Using Abortion Pill [...and AP buries name of Planned Parenthood]

Breitbart.com ^ | March 17, 2006 | AP

Note that "the organization that provided the pill to the two women said it would immediately stop disregarding the approved instructions for the pill's use" is not identified as Planned Parenthood until paragraph 11! Is it just me or does the writer appear to be covering for PP?

[ElkGroveDan]

Four of the women who died, including the latest two, received the pills at Planned Parenthood-affiliated clinics

[conservativehusker]

Wouldn't Walmart have a case for not carrying these pills?? They have pretty deep pockets and there are states making them carry it...

[Cicero]

No doubt about it. "The organization that provided the pill to the two women" does not accord with the standard practice of identifying Who, What, When, and Where as close to the head of the column as possible.

Probably AP designed the article so it could be continued on an inner page, so most readers would never see "Planned Parenthood" identified as the unnamed "organization" in question. Many newspapers trim such articles to fit, in which case the name of the organization would never be seen at all.

My thoughts exactly.

Excuse ME !!! But everytime RU-483 is used someone dies !!

[mrmargaritaville]

I wonder if any attorney is going to pursue action against those who provided the murder weapons.

[Froggie]

486 !!! sorry

[al baby]

ru486 It means to kick the baby to the curb sick acronym

[Revolting cat!]

Great catch. I must say, I've never seen this kind of technique of obfuscation before. How clever. How transparent.

Thank you a thousand times over for finding this article!

Bumping for Sunday morning pings to follow...to everyone that's been confusing RU-486 with that supposedly innocuous "Morning After Pill" that the libs in many states want our CHILDREN to have access to as an over-the-counter drug! Gawd!

Same critter, same high dose of unchecked hormones, slightly different fur. The "Culture of Death" is a Shape-Shifter; there's no doubt in my military mind.

Ru-486 has nothing to do with the "morning-after" pill which is just a high dose birth-contol pill to prevent pregnancy from occuring (i.e. prevent anything from attaching to the uterus).

This is nothing against you, but pro-life people do have to get their facts straight to not sound like out-of-touch fanatics on the issue.

An abortion inducing pill is very different than a pregnancy prevention pill. The debate over the morning-after pill has more to do with whether or not a few dozen cell embryo that exists before pregnancy occurs is 'life'.

If it is then make sure you are against regular birth-control pills too because they can work the same way (making the lining of the uterus 'uninhabitable').

[Supernatural]

Just desserts! They tried to kill their babies and wound up dead themselves.

Who said there is no justice?

[kpp_kpp]

Also, the morning-after pill does not terminate a pregnancy once it occurs. That is, if the there is an embryo attached to the uterus already it will remain so and the pregnancy will go on -- it only prevents the embryo from attaching, which medically speaking is when pregnancy starts.

(I'm not defending its use, just trying to get the facts straight.)

[marajade]

We don't know what their circumstances were...

[goldstategop]

Planned Parenthood and the feminazis don't care about women. Its their precious abortion that must preserved come hell or high water.

(Denny Crane: "I Don't Want To Socialize With A Pinko Liberal Democrat Commie. Say What You Like About Republicans. We Stick To Our Convictions. Even When We Know We're Dead Wrong.")

[Auntie Dem]

Meanwhile, Planned Parenthood Federation of America Inc. said it would immediately stop recommending vaginal insertion of the final course of pills.

Could it be Planned Parenthood inserted the pills with a coat hanger?

[Supernatural]

We know they were pregnant and didn't want to have their babies, right? And how did they become pregnant? Were they married? Were their husbands the fathers?

Birth control has made irresponsible, promiscuous women even more irresponsible and promiscuous. It is the worst thing ever invented.

[marajade]

They may have been raped for all we know.
