A Canadian Media Blackout.
Editor's note. Americans are familiar with media blackouts. But, I'm told, we have nothing on our Canadian pro-life brethren who have an even more difficult time garnering attention when something positive happens. The following letter of protest was sent by Dr. Paul Ranalli to the editor-in-chief of Canada's most prominent newspaper, the Globe and Mail.
July 31, 2002
Edward Greenspon
Editor-in-Chief
Globe and Mail
Dear Mr. Greenspon,
On Thursday, July 25, the U.S. House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly (274-151) to pass an Act banning "partial-birth abortion," a late-term procedure so gruesome it has split the pro-choice establishment. If the bill passes the Senate in the fall, it will be signed by President Bush, the first rollback of unfettered abortion since Roe v. Wade in 1973. News, by anyone's definition.
