CNN's Chetry Lets Abortionist Smear Pro-Life Demonstrators

CNN anchor Kiran Chetry let an “abortion provider” from Alabama, whose center was bombed by captured fugitive Eric Rudolph, denigrate all pro-life activists who have ever protested in front of such centers as potential murderers during a segment on Monday’s “American Morning.” When the “provider,” Diane Derzis, attacked “the people...who stand in front of these clinics every day....and the only way they see to take care of this is to kill us,” Chetry merely replied, “You don’t believe those words? You don’t differentiate between people who are opposed to abortion and pro-life for their religious reasons, versus those who are promoting violence?” (audio clips from the segment available here)

Chetry’s second question to Derzis during the interview was also rather sympathetic: “What is it like going to work knowing you have a target on your head?” This question, highlighted by Laura Ingraham on Monday, led the talk show host to call for the firing of the CNN anchor.

The anchor began her interview of the abortion clinic owner by asking for her reaction to the murder of late-term abortionist George Tiller, who was gunned down in his church in Wichita, Kansas on Sunday. Once she offered her initial reply, Chetry followed-up by explaining Derzis’s connection to past violence against such clinics and asking her “target” question: “Your clinic was the one that was bombed, actually, as well, right, in Birmingham, Alabama, by Eric Rudolph, the suspect who’s now serving time because of that. What is it like going to work knowing you have a target on your head?”

True, it’s hard to have a sexual revolution without abortionists to handle to consequences.

I hope Fox News has the guts to show the world what Mr. Tillers job profession was in pictures. Come on O’Reilly or Hannity or Beck.....the world needs to see, America needs to see what a third trimester abortion looks like.

Didn’t Drudge do something like that and his show was immediately yanked?

Fox traded Kiran Chetry for Greta VanSustern and a future draft choice, Glen Beck. Fox got the best of the deal.

Kiran Chetry is the same one who kept referring to our troops in Iraq being blown-up by IUD’s!

Perhaps Fox could put on a show, featuring an illiterate non-English speaking hispanic cleaning lady at an abortion clinic, spewing her experience.

Ms. Chetry, I'd like to ask you "What is it like going to work knowing you have NOTHING IN yours?"
