Imagine hearing a unbiased report that presented both sides of the story. That is Crazy Talk I know.

They are NOT "bought off". The BELIEVE what the say and DON'T say and are willing participants.

That's great news you should let the CMP know, they will feel better their next day in court.

In footage made public last July, Holly O’Donnell said she had been traumatized by her work for a fetal-tissue brokerage. She described feeling “pain...and death and eternity” and said she fainted the first time she touched the remains of an aborted fetus.





Unreleased footage filed in a civil court case shows that O’Donnell’s apparently spontaneous reflections were carefully rehearsed. David Daleiden, the anti-abortion activist who made the videos, is heard coaching O’Donnell through repeated takes, instructing her to repeat anecdotes, add details, speak “fluidly” and be “very natural.”
“Let’s try it two more times,” he told her at one point.
Later, O’Donnell protested: “I don’t want to tell that story again. Please don’t make me again, David.”

THis is easy. The Couric video was edited to create a false reality.


the PP vid was edited for time but content was not changed to turn reality into a lie.

You do know that the live fetus they claimed was at a planned parenthood facility was not PP.


Did Texas and Alabama start banning guns in reaction to the interview.


By the way I think the people that were being interviewed by Couric knew they were being filmed and she didn't pretend to be someone else by falsifying her credentials.


Double standard. LOL

The full, unedited PP videos are on the web. Anyone can watch them. As for any editing... This was done for TV. Parts were cut out for brevity, but nothing was changed or added.

Couric on the other hand deliberately INSERTED a silent stretch to imply the people in the video had no answer to a question. In fact, they answered immediately (their own tape recordings confirm this).

She's a hack. Always has been a hack.

She has no credentials. And your defense of her demonstrates just how low the bar really is with Progressives.

I wasn't defending her but complaining about her editing compared to a phony mission that riled up the right wing crazies and got almost all the abortion clinics close in southern sates, not even close.

Is she getting a pass? I've seen a fair amount of discussion about it. In fact, I've heard more about this getting edits than the Planned Parenthood getting edited (though the latter was in general talked about more).
