Sign-on letter: Dear media, don’t give airtime to anti-abortion extremists!
As a writer, I am incredibly proud to sign this letter by Physicians for Reproductive Health to the media. No, we do not have to give equal airtime to anti-abortion extremists who peddle lies.
“We know your reporting standards are to cover “both sides” of any debate. Allow us to be clear: Medicine and science are not up for debate. Health care is not a matter of opinion, it is a matter of fact. And the fact is, abortion is not in the realm of theory or belief. Abortion belongs in health care, social services, and public health reporting.”
