Casey Anthony, Jodi Arias, James Holmes, Adam Lanza — the list of “local crime” trials<\/a> the media spend countless hours reporting and politicizing goes on and on. But the soul-crushing testimony<\/a> about accused baby murderer Kermit Gosnell and his abortion house of horrors is “a local multiple-murder story … nothing more<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

Reserved media seating at the infanticide trial is nearly empty<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

If someone had killed Kermit Gosnell you can BET YOUR LIFE media would cover it. He (allegedly) kills SEVEN and *crickets*.<\/p>\n

I don’t care whether one is pro-abortion or pro-life. This #Gosnell<\/a> case should horrify anyone with a soul.<\/p>\n

Number of antis who have told the truth in tweets about Gosnell to me: 0. Their entire argument is built on a lie. Funny how that works.<\/p>\n

As Ace points out, the media blackout also keeps the horrifying details from the non-activist public. “After all, if the public hears of it, they may make The Wrong Decisions<\/a>.” Read the whole thing<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Heaven forfend we have a “national conversation” about infanticide.<\/p>\n\n\n

“We do know… during the rest of the week, Gosnell routinely aborted and killed babies in the 6th and 7th month of pregnancy.” #Gosnell<\/a><\/p>\n

Those details aren’t worthy of national coverage? Do your jobs, media.<\/p>\n\n\n

Tweet and retweet about the #Gosnell trial, post on Facebook and other social media sites and blog about the media blackout. Flood reporters with the hashtag and the uncomfortable truths they don’t want the public to know.<\/p>\n\n\n

Bloggers, if you write abt #Gosnell<\/a> on your sites, pls use the hashtag, so when it’s shared it counts towards trending. Let’s make it happen<\/p>\n
