March for Life - malicious media cover up

It is said that some 400,000 attended last Monday's March for Life in Washington DC. Yet what coverage did it get in the mainstream media?

Michelle Malkin is a fiery columnist and journalist. She appears regularly on Fox News. I always enjoy hearing what she has to say - she says things with that outraged indignation that is refreshing, even if at times one might filter some of her rhetoric.

Here she gives her view of the media cover up and the importance of this event in a column on her website: The March for Life 2011: America’s REAL rally to restore hope and sanity.

She writes:
Today marks the 38th annual March for Life in Washington, D.C. Throngs of peaceful activists — increasingly young and minority — will fill the streets of the nation’s capital to speak up and stand up for unborn life.

It has become an annual ritual to watch the national media and liberal commentariat strain to ignore or marginalize the burgeoning movement.

Expect no different this year. 
Malkin contrasts President Obama's comments on Roe vs Wade with those he made concerning what she calls the Philadelphia Horror (Scissors-wielding abortionist arrested on multiple murder counts):
Here is President Obama’s statement on Roe v. Wade:
Today marks the 38th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that protects women’s health and reproductive freedom, and affirms a fundamental principle: that government should not intrude on private family matters.

I am committed to protecting this constitutional right. I also remain committed to policies, initiatives, and programs that help prevent unintended pregnancies, support pregnant women and mothers, encourage healthy relationships, and promote adoption.

And on this anniversary, I hope that we will recommit ourselves more broadly to ensuring that our daughters have the same rights, the same freedoms, and the same opportunities as our sons to fulfill their dreams.
Here is his statement on the Philadelphia Horror:

Oh, wait. There isn’t one.
Here's a youtube video about the cover up last year:

  1. Excellent post! Media malpractice sums it up pretty well. The liberal media are pretty much irrelevant now, IMO. I believe that the pro-life movement is reaching people, that we are winning the war for life, and that is the reason that the Leftist propagandist media refused to cover the March for Life.

    God Bless, Father.
