Reporters have a role, too. We just assume fathers won't be present or part of the solution and rarely explain where they are or why they're not being held responsible.
Much was made by reporters and other Democrats, when Dan Quayle was named to the 1988 Republican ticket, of the fact that although Senator Quayle was hawkish he had joined the National Guard rather than upping for Vietnam. The apt rejoinder to that is, "But at the time, you told Mr. Quayle not to go to Vietnam, didn't you?"

Well, the same principle holds here. Reporters are far too busy telling men to be irresponsible and telling women to have abortions to be have any moral authority to preach responsibility to anyone.
