ABC News: 43 Days of No Coverage of the Kermit Gosnell Trial
ABC s blackout of the gruesome charges against abortionist Kermit Gosnell continued on Tuesday, 43 days after the trial began.
This came one day after a Media Research Center study found that the network s Good Morning America has devoted 109 minuted and 41 stories to other shocking criminal trials. Apparently, ABC s disinterest extends only to cases that might put the pro-abortion agenda in a negative light. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/01/abc-news-43-days-of-no-coverage-of-the-kermit-gosnell-trial/
Gosnell Jury Seeks Files for Abortion Patient Denied Informed Consent
Most of the focus in the murder trial of abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell is on the murder charges he faces for killing babies in abortion-infanticides and for killing a woman in a botched abortion.
But Gosnell faces more than 200 charges related to violating Pennsylvania state law that requires him to provide women with informed consent 24 hours prior to the abortion. Gosnell is charged with breaking that law by not giving women information about abortion risks and alternatives 24 hours prior to the abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/01/gosnel-jury-seeks-files-for-abortion-patient-denied-informed-consent/

NARAL Falsely Claims It Exposed Gosnell, Abortion Group Covered Up Horrors
As NRL News Today has discussed at length, pro-abortionists have tried to turn a scorching indictment of the Abortion Industry Kermit Gosnell s murder trial into a black mark against pro-lifers. In that convoluted logic so dear to their too-small hearts, they tell us to insist the abortion clinics meet minimal standards will drive women into the hands of men like Kermit Gosnell. Their hands (so to speak) are clean.
Never mind that in many states tattoo parlors are more heavily regulated than abortion clinics and that the Abortion Industry fights unceasingly to self-regulate. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/01/naral-falsly-claims-it-exposed-gosnell-abortion-group-covered-up-horrors/
Media Skips Coverage of Videos Showing Abortion Staffers OKing Infanticide

On the front page of the Metro section, they reported how a veteran D.C. abortion doctor named Cesare Santangelo told a 24-week pregnant woman that in the unlikely event that an abortion resulted in a live birth, we would not help it.
[T]echnically, you know, legally, we would be obligated to help it, you know, to survive, but it probably wouldn t, he said in a way to reassure the woman who was working for the undercover group Live Action. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/05/01/media-skips-coverage-of-videos-showing-abortion-staffers-oking-infanticide/
