This lawsuit, like many others, was probably filed specifically for the purpose of creating this news story and the public outrage that will follow.

"If" Fox News had any credible reason to believe this were true, it would be the lead story on their newscast and on the front page of their website....not buried in the health section as a story reporting what was alleged in a lawsuit.
Good points. It looks like they got the reaction they wanted. They want to sway the public on the issue before it even goes to court.

But goddamn, that is some horrible stuff. If you bring the baby to term, you have no business walking into an abortion clinic, even an unlicensed one.
