That, actually, is an agreement (widely held and respected) between both the supporters of abortion as well as its opponents--as well as the media--regarding how each side will refer to the other.

Oh? I've never heard of the media refer to pro-lifers as "pro-life." They're always "anti-abortion." Pro-aborts, however, are always pro-choice. Unless you're NARAL, then pro-lifers are "anti-choice."

Control the meaning of words, control the argument.

She, Gretchen, turned me off a long time ago... one day when I turned to the channel, She, primarily (the others too), but Gretchen specially was giggling silly like a little girl because HOWARD STERN of all people!.. was coming or had been there to the studio... or something. Geeee Howards who treats women like cows!... I knew this woman was an idiot really.

E.D. was special, intelligent, beautiful, elegant and she had class...OH and she was conservative!! she was the Elaine in Seinfeld! :) irreplaceable. I don't know why Fox chose this lightweight to replace her.

I don't watch the show anymore, it's not the same.

If I were doing the news, I would say pro-abortion or anti-abortion.

While no words are perfect, as those terms would be biased against the abortion side, it is fairer than saying pro-choice v. pro-life.

Both of those are very charged words.

Which is why there's the "Pro-Life side, and the "Pro-Baby-Murderers" side.

Wrong. The term "Pro-life" is used far less frequently by "pro-Choicers" than "anti-abortion." I would say the The same is true of the press, but that would be redudndant.
