Networks Ignore Planned Parenthood Sting Video
Yesterday the pro-life activists at Live Action released a video of a sting operation they conducted at a Planned Parenthood office in New Jersey. The video clearly shows the office manager giving counsel to a couple posing as pimp and prostitute who claimed to have minors employed as prostitutes, some from out of the country.
The edited video presentation can be found here and the unedited footage can be found here.
Yet despite the shocking content of the video, neither ABC, NBC, nor CBS covered the story in their February 1 evening news programs. Likewise the February 2 "Good Morning America," "Today," and "CBS Early Show" also failed to cover the story.
Some print outlets are devoting coverage, with the Washington Post and New York Times devoting stories to the matter on page A4 and A17 of their February 2 papers respectively. The Post's Sandhya Somashekhar reported this afternoon that the worker shown in the sting video was terminated last night by Planned Parenthood for having behaved in a "repugnant manner that is inconsistent with [Planned Parenthood's] standards of care."
The broacast news blackout comes nearly two weeks after omission of coverage of the arrest of a Philadelphia abortionist for murdering newborn babies at his clinic.

Planned Parenthood and Abortion (which go hand in hand) are the sacred cows of the liberal left. While the bias normally present is no surprise, the obvious omission of the entire story just shows the extent to which the fourth estate has fallen.PP = Deceit

PP: "[the worker behaved in a] repugnant manner that is inconsistent with [Planned Parenthood's] standards of care."
Everything about PP is repugnant. I don’t believe anything this filthy organization says or claims.
Think of it this way: Are we to believe anything coming from people who make their living killing children is true? The answer is NO! For every politician: Know that I demand the immediate cessation of taxpayer dollars (Local, State, and Feseral) to PP… and I Vote!

nothing to see here, this is Chinatown. The libs do not care what hapens at their inner city vote plantations, as long as the votes come.

I guess we're supposed to be concerned about how private businesses like Chik-fil-a spend or donate their assets, but not how and where tax revenue is spent.

Here's another one making the rounds that cast liberals in a bad light. Not that that is difficult.

Of course they ignored it. We do not have news organizations now. We have the Propaganda arm of the Marxist movement.
