Coverage of a Tragic Death: Reporting or Advocacy?
An MoJ reader notes that the story of Carmen Bojorge (which I posted earlier) has appeared in many other news venues. Given the lack of clear evidence of a direct connection between the abortion ban and the woman's death, he wonders "if it is more about some pro-abortion groups faxing out press statements and getting the media outlets to bite." Be sure to check out The Revealer's critique of the Washington Post's article on her death.
