Fox News begins drumbeat to void women’s rights: ‘Anyone who’s read the Constitution should be against Roe v. Wade’DAVID EDWARDS
27 JUN 2018 AT 15:41 ET
America’s most-watched conservative news network, Fox News, began a drumbeat on Wednesday that could eventually overturn abortion rights for women.
Just hours after the retirement of Justice Anthony Kennedy was announced, Fox News host Dana Perino brought on conservative writer Ben Shapiro to talk about the possibility that the court could outlaw abortion by overturning its Roe v. Wade decision.
“On the left, that’s what they’re concerned about,” Perino said. “Your thoughts?”
“I don’t think that’s completely inaccurate,” Shapiro explained. “The fact is that Roe v. Wade is a horribly decided decision. Any justice that the president appoints should be against Roe v. Wade because anybody who’s read the Constitution should be against Roe v. Wade — even if you are a pro-choice person.”
Shapiro argued that it was “highly unlikely” that states would “outlaw” abortion soon after a new justice was appointed.
