Bozell Column: The Laugh-a-Minute Abortion Telethon

Think Jerry's kids, except instead of saving the children, the unborn are eliminated. They call that "reproductive justice."

Mollie Hemingway of The Federalist has an excellent post today deconstructing how the liberal Texas Tribune website served as an uncritical PR agent for a Texas couple -- Marni Evan and John Lockhart -- who lamented how a new Texas law pushed them to seek an abortion out-of-state

MSNBC's Idea of 'Church Side' of Abortion Debate: Catholics for Choice

MSNBC Guest: Abortionists Are ‘Doing Wonderful, Important Work
So it seems that the sentiment at MSNBC is that killing babies is “important work.” At least that seems to be the message that Chris Jansing was sending her audience when she brought on New York Magazine’s Meaghan Winter to preview her article on abortion entitled “My Abortion.”
Appearing on her daily show on Thursday November 14, host Chris Jansing introduced the segment by hyping the “…
