Planned Parenthood Warns Media About Reporting on Videos
thefederalistpapers.org ^ | 7/30/2015 | Kimberly Morin

By now most of you have heard of or seen one of the three videos that have come out showing Planned Parenthood’s outrageous behavior of selling dead baby body parts.

The organization is so concerned about these videos showing people the truth about their operations they’re now threatening news media.

From Jammie Wearing Fools:

Planned Parenthood of Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota warned news outlets today that airing undercover videos from the Center for Medical Progress could violate “patient privacy.” Planned Parenthood says the videos violate laws however no wrong doing by the Center for Medical Progress has been proven.

Wow, this is some desperate stuff. By the way, did we mention they’re extremists?

The email from Planned Parenthood is below. From Valley News:

To: North Dakota Health and Political Reporters and Producers From: Jen Aulwes, Planned Parenthood Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota Date: July 27, 2015 Re: Center for Medical Progress Expected to Violate Patient Privacy

The Center for Medical Progress (CMP) is an extreme activist organization whose sole mission is to prevent women from accessing health care and to destroy Planned Parenthood. The board members of this group believe that abortion is “genocide,” and employ people who went to jail for attempting to bomb a women’s health clinic. They are also connected with the man who murdered abortion provider Dr. George Tiller.

CMP has used footage obtained through deceit and unlawful behavior, including possible violations of state recording laws, federal tax laws and falsified state identification. Then, they concoct wildly false stories through selective editing. We expect this video will be no different in that regard; however, footage yet to come is expected to represent an extreme violation of patient privacy by including footage of post-abortion fetal tissue neither patients nor health care professionals authorized be filmed.

When your network decides whether to consider this story newsworthy, or whether to use any of this footage at all, we urge you to keep this in mind: The extremists who entered Planned Parenthood labs under false pretenses violated research protocol, and, worse, violated the privacy of patients involved. Those patients’ privacy should not be further violated by having this footage shared by the media.

The storage and examination processes that CMP used to get this footage are medically necessary. It is necessary medical professionals ensure an abortion is complete so that patients do not get an infection. When tissue is donated for medical research, these steps are also necessary for the donations to be completed. It is also medically necessary that researchers evaluate the laboratory procedures of a medical provider for safety standards and best practices.

Some of the conversations and protocols that occur in medical settings and among professional peers can sound jarring when taken out of context. While this can be difficult to hear or watch, it should not be used as an excuse to defund Planned Parenthood.

CMP gained access to Planned Parenthood facilities under false pretenses and filmed without securing approval from the Planned Parenthood staff being filmed or the patients whose privacy is compromised by this secret videotaping. The material should not be aired. Planned Parenthood is actually calling the Center for Medical Progress the extremists?

Can you laugh any louder? There has been not one patient identified during any of these videos.

Are they concerned that the dead baby body parts they harvested will be identifiable?

Planned Parenthood, in typical leftist fashion, doesn’t want regular people to know the TRUTH.

PP, for the moment, is a cornered, rabid dog, fighting for it’s life, lashing out at anyone telling the truth about this murderous, racist organization. Margaret Sanger and Adolf Hitler would be proud of it’s attempts to survive, at any cost, primarily those of innocent human lives.

I’d wager that the first thing that happens when the baby is ripped and torn from the mother is that all traces of the mother’s identity has been destroyed. Why? Two reasons. First is to make it difficult for a mother to sue due to false promises, devious manipulation and recompense for value of the ‘tissue’ PP made a profit on. Second, is to disguise and confuse the ‘origin’ and processing of the ‘tissue’ to avoid PP’s being charged with criminal acts.

The Board of Directors, Board of Advocates, and leadership and staff of Planned Parenthood and its component organizations should be among the first indicted, tried, convicted, and sentenced in a Nuremberg-style trial for genocidal murder, crimes against humanity, and treason.

Their short drop and quick stop sentence should be televised.

They ‘deserve’ the same kind of trial, adjudication and sentencing they gave their “client” body parts.

The doctors involved should no longer have that title. They must uphold a oath and I’m willing to bet what they are doing is not part of it

Some people could be life in prison if this was brought to trial. No wonder they’re so scared.

You gotta have complete control of the media in order for the autocracy to work.

The media got P/P’s veiled warning but it’s too late....we all know how the P/P hitmen operate.

Barbaric cruelty to defenseless babies tells us all we need to know.

Who else is on their hit list?

Planned Parenthood is saying that airing the videos violates patience privacy. Hum. What is the patience’s name, SSN, where are the patience’s health records, birth certificate? It was just a mass of cells not a patience. No violation. Next.

Have any of these hypocrite liberals ever watched “60 Minutes” the show that specialized in undercover exposure of anything ‘not liberal’?

That too.

Here’s another legal precedent:

Moore v. Regents of the University of California, where a California court ruled that John Moore had no rights to the millions the University made commercializing his cell line.

The next case could well be judged 180° from that, and the poor poor corporations and beleaguered Planed “Parenthood” might have to surrender a small fraction of the blood money they made selling murdered baby parts if the mother could easily be identified.

Healthcare workers always say this patient privacy crap. HIPAA applies to healthcare workers. The rest of the world, including media can talk about things all they want. It doesn’t apply to cops either.
At the car wreck a cop can tell a reporter John Doe had his broken and was taken to the XYZ hospital. No foul.
A Paramedic cannot without the patients permission.

And the news talking about it however they come by it is not a crime. Healthcare workers always like to pretend like it applies to everyone, it doesn’t.
