This past weekend, I attended the National March for Life in Washington D.C.--along with 300,000 other dedicated pro-lifers.
But what does this have to do with media?
Nothing. In fact, that's the problem.
Year after year, the March for Life is growing larger and larger--but the mainstream media refuses to provide any accurate coverage of the event...or any coverage whatsoever.
Don't believe me? Google it. I did--in fact, Google didn't show ANY major news service reports, and I was forced to go into individual websites just to get some information about the march. Wikipedia was much more informative...for once...
This video by LiveAction demonstrates some of the frustration that pro-lifers have at the misinformation and downright ignorance that the media is showed in 2010:
What do you think?

Laura,
ReplyDeleteI understand how passionate you are about this subject, and I am really sorry that there was no coverage about it. EVEN I never heard of this march before!! But now I know about it, and I will post it on my blog as well, so there will be more people educated about this march!
Wow. This is amazing. Very little of coverage of a 300,000 person march?!? It reminds me of the paucity of coverage of anti-war demonstrations in the lead up the US invasion of Iraq.
