Media Activists Won't Grill Democrats On Unpopular Abortion Extremism Because They Agree With It

As if it wasn’t already apparent from their overblown coverage advocating
against abortion restrictions like the 15-week abortion ban Sen. Lindsey
Graham introduced last week, the corrupt corporate media is not interested
in making Democrats reckon with their deeply unpopular abortion extremism.

Republican Sen. Marco Rubio confirmed that this week when he “emailed 55
different reporters from 40 major news outlets” asking if they ever
bothered to press Democrats on whether they support any restrictions on
abortion, when a baby in the womb is considered viable, and whether
Planned Parenthood is qualified to declare a pregnant mother’s life is in
danger.

Democrats have poured more than $124 million into TV advertisements with
hopes of making abortion their topline midterm issue. Rubio’s own
challenger Val Demings put millions towards ads promoting abortion, voted
to codify unlimited abortion, urged Democrats in the Senate to ignore the
restraints of the filibuster to vote the same, and admitted that she
believes abortionists should be able to change the parameters of viability
to accommodate women’s desires to get abortions.

Despite this intense and expensive commitment to promoting unlimited, on-
demand abortion, blue politicians have escaped any scrutiny about their
unpopular abortion stances from their allies in the corporate media.

That’s why it’s no surprise that of the dozens of outlets Rubio emailed,
including ABC News, Axios, Bloomberg, CBS News, CNN, NBC News, New York
Post, NPR, the Associated Press, The New York Times, The Washington Post,
and more, each one failed to “provide documentation it had asked Democrats
a single tough question on abortion.”

In fact, Rubio reported the only three corporate media mouthpieces that
responded to his inquiry were defensive. Business Insider even published a
piece classifying Rubio’s questions as “combative.”

“Democrats get away with murder, literally. They are never pushed to
answer specific questions about where they stand on the taking of human
life,” Rubio said in a statement. “The truth is that every single Democrat
supports taxpayer funded abortion without any restrictions up until the
moment a child is born. That is the truth, but Democrats never have to
explain their radical position, because the press is all too willing to
cover for them.”

Rubio is right. The corporate press is not just failing to ask tough
questions. Media outlets are deliberately refusing to ask key questions
because they know doing so will expose Democrats’ abortion views for what
they are: unpopular, unjust, and extreme.

“There is no benefit to asking Democrats tough questions because their
readers—the people that pay their salaries—don’t want to hear it. Besides,
they agree with the Democrats anyway,” Rubio continued.

Democrats’ radical track record when it comes to abortion is no secret.
They want to push unlimited abortions in all 50 states and will stop at
nothing, including the filibuster, to ensure it happens.

Yet, while voters are busy trying to cover their increasingly expensive
grocery bills, wondering how they will pay for electricity this month, and
thinking about which 2022 midterm candidates will help lower prices at the
pump, the press is aiding Democrats in their mission to make their radical
abortion campaign national by ignoring the vilest, most obvious premise of
that campaign.

That’s not just a dereliction of duty, that’s purposeful enabling of the
left’s abortion propaganda without remorse.
