DM Register gives first page coverage to man who justifies Tiller murder.
So besides torture being OK, you can get a sympathetic press if you want to whack someone whose religious principles differ from yours?? Kind of a real slippery slope there.

1. KGAN (Channel 2)
Gave him a lot of air time yesterday. I seldom watch that station, now I know why.

3. This is important
There are certain people within the anti-abortion movement who believe that I'm a mythical creature -- that women who have had a late abortion due to medical issues don't really exist, that we were just made up by "liberals" or "abortionists" as cover or justification for there being late abortions.

There are also people who don't believe folks like this guy exist -- people that honestly believe that 1) no matter the cost (even death), women should carry to term and attempt to give birth; and 2) people that call for the death of others simply because of that person's profession.

These are two very important pieces of the abortion discussion that are often missing. While I didn't see either of two reports mentioned here, people need to know the truth.

5. That fat tub of goo Steve Deace
Edited on Wed Jun-03-09 11:25 AM by Rambis
gets a mention on Rachel?
WTF! He is an ex failed "sports guy" and Limpballs wannabe! I guess it proves the Andy Warhol theory that everyone no matter how ridiculous gets their 15 minutes.

6. WHO is like a fundie church of the air anymore
pretty much adores King.
I have listened to Deace. What a hypocrite. But clearchannel cares not one whit about audience and content. All they care about is not paying taxes.

Can't find the story in the register online - does anyone have a link?

7. What I would suggest
What I would suggest doing is gathering the names of every last business that advertised in that edition of The Register. Then contact each and every last one of them and register your disappointment with them for advertising in that paper, and request that they reconsider doing so anymore.
