Herald article biased against ‘pro-life’ side

Published 1:30 am Tuesday, July 19, 2022

The Herald’s recent lengthly article was clearly supportive of abortion (“After Roe falls, local abortion clinics already feel ‘strained’ system,” The Herald, July 13.)

Starting with the slanted headline and caption, then continuing, only two people, maybe three, were included from a pro-life perspective. What did the individuals say to reporters during the interview process that was deemed “not worthy enough” for a major front-page leading story? Did the three reporters contact additional local and national pro-life organizations as those supporting abortion (roughly ten instances)? Also, notice the reference here to “pro-life” as opposed to the term “anti-abortion.” Unfortunately, this biased story was hardly balanced!

Finally, as one whose life began as a result of sexual assault (rape), it is a joy being present, standing and praying some 20 years at or near the intersection of 32nd & Hoyt, not only for the preborn infants but also defending and supporting their moms! Women deserve better than abortion, which ends an unborn human life.
