Will the NY Times Finally Recognize Pro-Life Movement, March for Life?
January 27th, 2017 4:06 PM
It happens every year in late January -- the annual March for Life, the 44th edition happening today -- around the anniversary of the Supreme Court decision Roe v. Wade that legalized abortion.

January 26th, 2017 3:38 PM

January 26th, 2017 2:11 PM
Thursday on The View, the mostly liberal panel surprisingly talked about an event that ABC’s news shows routinely ignore: the annual March for Life. The hosts were respectful of the marchers but Whoopi Goldberg took issue with the march’s use of the term “pro-life.” The whole panel then made contradictory and confusing arguments then about how one could be both “pro-choice” and “pro-life.”

Networks Cover Women’s March 129x More Than March for Life
January 25th, 2017 12:01 PM
It’s called adding insult to injury: pro-life women (and men) have not only been rejected by the Women’s March on Washington but also by the liberal media.

Nets Give 3X More Airtime to Neo-Nazis Than Past Four Marches for Life
November 22nd, 2016 12:09 PM
The media have been promoting neo-Nazis and white nationalists in hopes to (admirably) discredit them and falsely insinuate that they were far-right conservatives who propelled Donald Trump to the White House. This trend manifested itself with five minutes and 17 seconds Tuesday morning on CBS and NBC that attempted to label the neo-Nazi conference as one featuring “conservative extremist[s]” and…

During their…
