...which Kickstarter didn't mind in other contexts.
From the article is you won't read it for yourself.
"Somehow, making a movie recounting the crimes of a convicted abortion doctor is disrespectful and inconsiderate. Kickstarter would only speak off the record, but its explanations were dissembling and contradictory. That might be because Kickstarter's standards aren't exactly rigorously enforced.

So, no PROOF of any lie, just a writer CLAIMING that there was a lie "off the record".

Is this business a public accommodation in a state that has anti-discrimination laws that include anti-abortion film producers?
