Pregnancy Crisis Center

I am so tired of these deceptive, anti-choice places that lie to women about their options, lie about abortion and discourage women from exercising their full range of rights.

I watch TV news out of Rockford IL. Last night, for the second time, this station ran a segment on the Pregnancy Center of Rockford and their so-called Stork Bus. This mobile unit goes around the area and offers free testing to women for pregnancy, STDs and other women's health services, not including abortion.

If this TV station is going to run news segments about this group, they should also run a segment about Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood offers the same services for little or no cost. They also offer services to men. Contrary to the propaganda, they also work with women to provide adoptions to those who want that choice. Of course they offer abortions. Abortion is a perfectly valid and legal choice.

I called the TV station today and made my feelings known. I was not rude, but I let them know that I expect to see a news story about Planned Parenthood and some more truth about pregnancy crisis centers. I will be contacting a local women's group to see if anyone else is interested in publicizing this or asking the TV station to show less bias.

The TV station is WREX TV in Rockford IL. Their phone number is 815-335-2213. Here is a link to the story:
