Can't say why exactly, but "bumpage" gave me a good LOL.

Why is this any surprise? CNN loves to play with words in order to manipulate the public. This is also why Fox news is blowing them out of the water.

No surprise, as the first line of my post indicated, but still, the in-your-face brazenness was breathtaking.

They are going by the approved "style book," which all news organizations require their reporters and writers to use. In the book they are directed to use the terms "pro-choice" and "anti-abortion."

Term for Pro-abortion should be "opposed to fetus rights".

I just saw this article seconds before the ping. CNN couldn't get more contorted.

Please see #8. Frankly, while I had no doubts as to where CNN in general and Judy in particular stand, frankly I was taken aback by the blatantly unequal treatment.
To: governsleastgovernsbest
The MSM is not in favor of equal rights. If they were they would promote the need for men to "disavow" fatherhood as a form of male abortion. After all, isn't the health (mental or otherwise) of the father just as important as the health of the mother?

Judy WOOFruff is a left wing hack..... I will not forget the big gasp she made when the republicans won big in the 1994 elections. That's when I knew she was a commie....
To: governsleastgovernsbest
Haven't I seen articles that the leftists are going to try and distance themselves from abortion somewhat? It will all be a smokescreen of course but I think that's at least part of what we're seeing here.

"Woodruff noddingly agreed "we hear you." Good grief. Rather brazen, yes?

Every media organization has its own style book, reflecting its own values. Surely Fox News, for example, doesn't employ the same nomenclature.

You mean they didn't use the term "opposed to the rights to life of babys"?
Wierd.

Term for Pro-abortion should be "opposed to fetus rights". Blood-sucking murderous baby-killers is too strong for you??? ;->
