This is how Dr TIller's murder should have been covered
but of course M$Greedia has an agenda.

By the way, eyewitnesses just said that VonBrunn was wearing a Canfederate hat.

1. The right wing has so politicized abortion, most people don't even want
to think about it, let alone realize what the right wing campaign against women's health providers might mean to them.

That's their greater victory, right there.

3. That is exactly right!
The forced-birth crowd has managed to control the political discourse in such a way that it appears that only they have a "morally based" position, while those of us on the other side of that issue do not have any morals at all.

Bastards.

4. M$Greedia shares the blame
They decide the political discourse and they know that the forced-birth crowd are the GOP base.

7. The Tiller assassination was avoided by the GOP-controlled media because it was about sex.
Americans by and large are frightened by it. Any mention of it is too much talk about it.

It's the reason why murders can be depicted on fictional shows, but a momentary portion of Janet Jackson's breast is met with uproar.

The abortion issue has always been about which adults have the right to engage in consensual sexual activity.

And why it cannot be covered by adults.

5. That's EXACTLY what I was thinking. WHERE was the McMedia when Dr. Tiller was murdered?
They're all over this latest one like white on rice - and BOTH murders deserve the coverage this latest one is getting. But the American Taliban has so demonized women's health care and so demonized services to desperate and sometimes dying women, that it just gets let go...

6. M$Greedia has done a pretty good job as well
But the American Taliban has so demonized women's health care and so demonized services to desperate and sometimes dying women, that it just gets let go...

--------------
An OB/GYN was assassinated but all I heard was abortion doctor.
