Fox News Shilling For Planned Parenthood?

Just in case you missed it, Fox News Anchor Anchor Martha MacCallum and Judge Andrew Napolitano actually tried to tell the Fox News viewing audience that the largest single abortion provider in the United States and the world, Planned Parenthood, doesn't do abortions.

Covering the effort on the part of the State of Texas to defund Planned Parenthood, MacCallum turned to Napolitano and said: “So judge... they don’t perform abortions at Planned Parenthood,” and Napolitano responded, “Correct."

You can access the video here, assuming it is still available (the statement appears 35 seconds into the video), but unfortunately for MacCallum and Napolitano, the facts directly contradicts MacCallum's idiotic statement and Napolitano's false affirmation.

Planned Parenthood is not only the largest abortion provider in the country but, contrary to what Planned Parenthood would have the American public believe, abortion is its raison d'etre. LifeNews.com confirms that Planned Parenthood affiliates performed 329,445 abortions in 2010 and provided prenatal care to only 31,098 women in the fiscal year ending in June of 2010.

Moreover, the Planned Parenthood Federation of America's (PPFA) Annual Report for the year ending in June of 2009 shows that PPFA took in 1.1 Billion dollars (that's Billion with a "B") in revenues and accrued expenses of 1.037 Billion dollars. Additionally, the organization started the year with over 1 Billion dollars in net assets, but due to losses on "investment income," only finished the year with slightly under 995 Million dollars in net assets.

The Annual Report for the year ending in June of 2009 also confirms that approximately 363.3 Million dollars (or approximately 33 percent of the organization's 1.1 Billion dollar budget) came from government grants, 209 Million dollars (or approximately 19 percent of the organization's revenue) came from private gifts, and the majority of the remaining income came from the services PPFA provides at its "facilities" across the country... not a bad haul for a not-for-profit organization.

  1. I'm very disappointed in Martha MacCallum and Judge Napolitano along with Fox News for allowing them to lie about Planned Parenthood, not only do they perform abortions, they are the largest abortion provider in the U.S..

  3. Considering that Fox "Romney all the time" "News" Channel shilled for the most liberal RINO during the entire primary season this year, I would now not doubt that Fox "News" Channel is indeed shilling for Planned Barrenhood which has killed at least ten million innocent unborn children since the most infamous Supreme Court decision on January 22, 1973: Roe vs. Wade.

  4. Why do you suppose that Fox did that? They are folding to political correctness due to Murdoch's trouble with his other businesses in Great Britain. Planned Parenthood is technically not the one who does the work, rather their affiliates - that is why the law had to be so complicated to keep them from wiggling around it. They will anyway.
