BREAKING: CBC's Nancy Wilson calls fetus "unborn baby"

Okay, "BREAKING" is a bit of an exaggeration...still...

While covering the story of a Canadian medical first—the heart operation that doctors performed on a baby inside the womb — yes, a baby— they referred to it not as “a clump of cells”, or as a “disease that could possibly need to be aborted”, or as “pre-choice doo-doo”, but rather as “a baby”.

No, they didn’t even add “so-called” to “baby”, the way they add “so-called” to “war on terror”.

Throughout the story, they kept referring to it as “a baby”.


PTBC has details.

Let's not be too shocked, though, even Morgentaler said a fetus was a baby after 24 weeks. It's just extremists who won't admit the truth.
