Obama Will be First Sitting President to Address Planned Parenthood
President
Barack Obama, tomorrow, will become the first sitting president to address
the Planned Parenthood abortion business. Obama originally planned to talk
to the abortion giant tonight at its gala but pushed back the speech to Friday
after massive criticism and suggestions he was ignoring victims of the Waco
explosion.
Tomorrow, he will speak to 1,000 supporters of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. The big question is whether he will address the murder trial of abortion practitioner Kermit Gosnell. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

A new Fox News poll shows voters believe a pro-abortion bias in the media is
behind the poor coverage of the Kermit Gosnell murder trial.Most national media outlets are either ignoring the trial of the late-term abortion practitioner or providing every little coverage. A new report shows two networks have not covered it and one covered it for a mere 13 seconds. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Pro-Life Congresswoman Exposes Gosnell on O’Reilly Factor
A
top pro-life congresswoman exposed late-term abortion practitioner Kermit
Gosnell, who is on trial for murder, on the O’Reilly Factor program
last night.
Due to a lack of national broadcast news coverage on these issues, Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) organized a letter with 71 of her House colleagues last week to ABC, NBC, and CBS. The letters demand these networks stop blacking out coverage on high-profile abortion controversies. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
CBS Devotes Just 13 Seconds to Gosnell Trial; ABC, NBC Ignore It
For the first time in over a week, CBS covered the murder trial of abortionist
Dr. Kermit Gosnell on Wednesday’s CBS This Morning. But instead of
a full report, as on April 15, Norah O’Donnell read a news brief that
lasted just 13 seconds on the trial judge dismissing three of the murder
charges against the Philadelphia physician [audio available here; video
below the jump].
ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today on Wednesday failed to cover this noteworthy development in the case. Neither broadcast network has aired one second of reporting on the Gosnell trial on their morning and evening newscasts. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

What
I Saw and Heard in Two Days at the Kermit Gosnell Murder Trial
I recently spent two days at the murder trial of Kermit Gosnell, the abortionist accused of the murder of seven babies born alive and one woman. Gosnell would take babies who were born alive after botched abortions and snip the backs of their necks to finish the job. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Pro-Life Advocate Says Kermit Gosnell Should be Spared the Death Penalty
The death penalty: it’s the ultimate issues on which pro-life people disagree. People of good faith have been unable to reach agreement on it — with both sides making equally compelling cases for why the death penalty is or is not consistent with the pro-life ethic that has them united against abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Europe
Misuses War Laws to Pressure US to Fund Abortions in Africa
European leaders pressing President Obama to fund African abortions argue that a novel interpretation of laws governing war should trump US restrictions on abortion funding. To make their case, they are elevating the views of a few experts from a different body of law—human rights. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
