The reserved media section and which represents perfectly the lack of media attention that has been paid to the murder trial of abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell and his house of horrors.


As a result, Twitter has been ablaze with #Gosnell and other related hashtags from testimony given during the trial.

I don't think you have to be "pro-life" or "anti-abortion" to question the lack of mainstream coverage of the Kermit Gosnell case.

Don't really care for the racial angle? Too bad. Just holding the establishment-left to their own standards.

#NewtownSo, where is the national dialog on black victims of gun violence in gun-free zones like #Chicago & #Detroit?

Face it, America, abortion doc murdering black babies just doesn't interest media all that much. #Gosnell #RainingFetuses

And wherever it was covered, let's just say they treaded lightly:

Quite a euphemism for mass murder, @kdrum! Gosnell "regulatory failure that caused the deaths of a few poor people." motherjones.com/kevin-drum/201…

We can imagine the unpleasantness when the sordid underbelly of a culture one holds sacred, that being the culture of death that props up the abortion industry, is ripped open and exposed for what it is. Covering the priest abuse scandal or the slaughter of white children is so much more easy and funner than having to confront the statist policy failures that have led to the senseless deaths of so many minorities in liberal havens like Detroit and Chicago at the hands of criminals or rogue abortion doctors.


Once again, social media doing the job old media won't.
