Fox Business reporter: 95% of Planned Parenthood's 'pregnancy services' were abortions

http://www.politifact.com/punditfact/statements/2015/aug/04/sandra-smith/fox-business-reporter-95-planned-parenthoods-pregn/

Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee supports the federal government cutting off more than $500 million to Planned Parenthood, calling the organization "an industry of abortion" in a recent Fox Business Channel interview.

His interviewer, Fox Business reporter Sandra Smith, did not disagree — and she offered numbers to back up her point.

"Almost 95 percent of all their pregnancy services were abortions," Smith said as she guest-hosted Mornings with Maria on July 28, 2015....

We reached out to Smith for comment but did not hear back.

That is a huge fucking lie. Why do they get to go on teevee and do that. It's so damn wrong.
