CNN grills man behind Planned Parenthood videos over his ties to violent extremists

[DonViejo]

David Daleiden of the Center for Medical Progress, who was behind the recent deceptively edited anti-Planned Parenthood videos, insisted to CNN host Alisyn Camerota on Tuesday that he was not personally a violent person even though his organization was tied to violent extremists.

“Critics of your organization say that you’re not journalists as you purport to be on your website, but rather you’re violent extremists,” Camerota noted. “They say that you are operating under the guise of investigative reporting, but really you’re trying to shut down all Planned Parenthoods and women’s access to things like birth control and other services that they provide.”

“Do you have any ties to Operation Rescue?” the CNN host asked.

“I’m not a violent person and I never have been and I never will be,” Daleiden insisted. “Troy Newman is one of the board members of the Center for Medical Progress.”

“And Troy Newman is the president of Operation Rescue,” Camerota pointed out, adding, “Operation rescue does have a history of threatening violence against abortion clinics.”

“You know, I don’t think that’s true at all,” Daleiden replied. “You would have to talk to Troy specifically about, you know, the full history of Operation Rescue and some of those details. But I don’t think that’s a fair characterization at all.”

1. Took the intrepid "journalists" of cable and mass news two weeks to question the source?? Yep...

Will CNN follow up on the violent history and creed of Operation Rescue, whose President sits on the "board" of the "biotech firm" that is a shell cover specially incorporated for hate group Operation Rescue?

Also look up "James O'Keefe" and "ACORN" and you will uncover a massive propaganda campaign aimed at......YOU in the media. You gonna take that, CNN? Or join them??

Do your jobs and expose the propaganda that is damaging all of America.

And that was not a "grilling" that was exploratory surgery.

3. Come again? How is "PP stopping crime at it's root source"? With "abortions and 'safe sex'"?? What???

4. Planned Parenthood provides condoms for free, that is what I was referring to

http://plannedparenthood.org/planned-parenthood-southwestern-oregon/oregon-teens/confidential-teen-services

All of our health centers offer free condoms. Drop in any time during open hours for a dozen free condoms, no waiting! Info about the correct use of a condom is included in each bag. -

5. Deflection. How does that "stop crime at it's source"?

9. An unwanted child born to single teenage mother in a low income community...

Is going to be more likely to drop out of school, turn to crime, go through the prison system, etc.

That is a unavoidable fact and planned parenthood is the only group out there stopping this at the source by providing free or affordable abortions, condoms, sex education, etc.

[Fred Sanders]

10. So how about supporting the teenage mother, her choice for an abortion or not, when she and if she becomes a mother?

You are confusing "source" with " a cause". How about a guaranteed minimum income and full post-natal support for any mother?

Lack of income and societal support for new born babies and their mothers would also a causes.

We could call it BabyCare.

6. Nice for someone to finally state the obvious.

Crazy, violent people, using a completely discredited tactic to hurt an organization that does good, by lying.

THERE's your story, right there.

[Fred Sanders]

8. That would be an outstanding story for a journalist to break:

"Planned Parenthood Videos and Producers Exposed As Paid GOP and "Operation Rescue" Political
Operatives"

Bonus: it would be true!

7. David's Dandelion (sic) of the fake bio-tech "company" that serves as a front for Operation Rescue is a

liar and ever sentence he uttered is a lie.

11. Well, well, well

Considering how the media like to stovepipe practically any dollar spent on women's health to abortion (if it's not spent directly on abortion, it's being spent on other women's health care, which means that the facility or clinic has more money available to spend on abortion), it's nice to see them connect two rather obvious dots.

Daleiden's disingenuous denial to the contrary, he really should be a little more careful about the company he keeps. Go into business with vandals and murderers, and you're likely to be suspected of being one yourself. You know what an ethical person would do, Mr. Daleiden? Of course you don't. An ethical person would break off all associations and financial ties to a terrorist organization. But you don't do that, do you?

12. What? Did CNN run out of Kool Aid?

How could the most trusted name in Faux imitators let themselves run out of Kool Aid?
