In it, she marks the first anniversary of the Center for Medical Progress\u2019s Planned Parenthood investigation by packing every single lie she and others have ever told about it in one spot\u2014giving us the opportunity for a definitive, one-stop debunking.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->First, Marcotte dismisses the idea that Planned Parenthood was illicitly selling baby parts\u2014with \u201cbaby parts\u201d in scare quotes, even though it\u2019s 100% accurate (livers, lungs, etc., are \u201cparts,\u201d and fetuses <a href=\"\/news\/decode-pro-abortion-talking-points-with-the-choicespeak-to-english-dictionary-part-1\/\">are babies<\/a>)\u2014as a \u201clurid urban legend\u201d and a \u201cself-evidently idiotic conspiracy theory.\u201d There she <a href=\"https:\/\/skepchick.org\/2015\/07\/planned-parenthood-is-not-selling-baby-parts-you-fucking-idiots\/\">links<\/a> to a profanity-laden rant by blogger Rebecca Watson titled, \u201cPlanned Parenthood is Not Selling Baby Parts, You F***ing Idiots.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The profanity is apparently meant to compensate for nonexistent substance, inasmuch as Planned Parenthood <a href=\"http:\/\/time.com\/3962098\/planned-parenthood-fetal-tissue-donations-video\/\">openly admitted<\/a> <em>selling<\/em> them; they just maintain the <em>price at which<\/em> they sold only covered expenses and therefore didn\u2019t constitute <em>profit<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Which was a lie. Marcotte tries to deny it by claiming the full video shows Dr. Deborah Nucatola \u201crepeatedly mak[ing] it clear that Planned Parenthood does not sell fetal tissue. Instead, they donate fetal tissue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As I\u2019ve <a href=\"\/news\/comprehensive-guide-media-matters-lies-spin-behalf-planned-parenthood\/\">covered in detail<\/a> before, those comments are simply cover referencing Planned Parenthood\u2019s interest in not being <em>perceived as<\/em> profiting. They don\u2019t erase Nucatola saying some Planned Parenthood affiliates would like\u00a0to \u201cdo a little better than break even,\u201d Dr. Mary Gatter negotiating prices because \u201cit has to be big enough that it is worthwhile,\u201d or StemExpress flyers advertising the \u201cfinancially profitable\u201d nature of partnering with them on fetal organ procurement.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, organ profiting isn\u2019t the only possible crime the videos reveal. Marcotte has nothing to say about the talk of \u201ctry[ing] to change the presentation so that it\u2019s not vertex\u201d in order to \u201cevacuate an intact calvarium at the end,\u201d \u201ctraining\u201d abortionists \u201cto make sure that they don\u2019t crush\u201d organs, or \u201cget[ting] creative about when and where and under what conditions can we interject something that is specific to the tissue needs\u201d\u2014all of which signify illegally altering abortion procedures to obtain intact organs at greater risk to the woman (among other <a href=\"\/news\/a-guide-to-how-planned-parenthood-is-breaking-the-law\/\">federal laws<\/a>\u00a0possibly broken).<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">CMP\u2019s strategy was sleazy but effective, taking advantage of the internet era\u2019s rush to get the story out while it\u2019s still hot \u2014 and before there\u2019s a chance for thorough fact-checking, or even basic research.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Ah, but thorough fact-checking and basic research did come months later, and do you know what it found? <a href=\"\/news\/forensic-analysis-finds-full-planned-parenthood-videos-authentic\/\">Two forensic analyses<\/a>\u2014one, yes, commissioned by pro-lifers, but the other <em>by Planned Parenthood<\/em> and done by <em>left-wing, Democrat-affiliated<\/em> Fusion GPS\u2014confirmed that CMP was showing America what really happened.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, Fusion GPS tried to satisfy their client with (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.politico.com\/story\/2015\/08\/planned-parenthood-undercover-videos-report-finds-manipulation-121800.html\">per Politico<\/a>) insinuations of \u201cintentionally deceptive edits, missing footage and inaccurately transcribed conversations,\u201d but ultimately had to admit \u201cthere is no evidence that the anti-abortion group behind the attack made up dialogue\u201d or \u201cwidespread evidence of substantive video manipulation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After that, CNN\u2019s Anderson Cooper and Drew Griffin\u2014hardly anti-abortion propagandists\u2014<a href=\"\/news\/stop-presses-cnns-anderson-cooper-questions-planned-parenthood-deceptive-editing-narrative\/\">came up empty<\/a> looking for the \u201cheavy deceptive edits\u201d Planned Parenthood keeps insisting are there. The \u201cthe only thing we found,\u201d Griffin said, was <a href=\"\/news\/pro-abortion-talking-points-memo-writer-lies-prenatal-abortion-images\/\">one instance<\/a> where footage of a baby was used as illustration, yet pro-aborts falsely inferred it was meant to be interpreted as another starving baby referenced by a whistleblower\u2026 who obviously wouldn\u2019t have worn a hidden camera to work <em>before<\/em> witnessing the shocking incident that caused her to be a whistleblower in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>Marcotte turns that molehill from a mountain from which to demonize <a href=\"\/news\/pro-fiorina-pac-defends-accuracy-attack-planned-parenthood\/\">Carly Fiorina<\/a> as an \u201cobnoxious liar.\u201d If you\u2019re gonna lie, Amanda, can you at least give us something original?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The attack failed,\u201d Erica Sackin, the director of political communications for Planned Parenthood, argued in an email sent out on Wednesday. \u201cAnd public support for Planned Parenthood continues to rise.\u201d To back up this argument, Sackin cites <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/doc\/316881192\/Nbcwsj-June-Poll#page=9\">polling that shows that support for Planned Parenthood<\/a> has risen in the past year and notes that \u201cvoters in key swing states saying that opposing care at Planned Parenthood actually makes voters less likely to support a candidate.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Yes\u2026 polling resulting from a corrupt media that <a href=\"http:\/\/newsbusters.org\/blogs\/culture\/katie-yoder\/2015\/10\/28\/networks-skip-over-last-seven-planned-parenthood-videos\">won&#8217;t cover<\/a> videos that have been <a href=\"http:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2015\/08\/20\/poll-finds-support-for-planned-parenthood-drops-due-to-videos\/\">confirmed to turn people against PP<\/a> and spreads the <a href=\"\/news\/heres-why-planned-parenthoods-3-abortion-claim-is-misleading\/\">lie<\/a> that PP is primarily about non-abortion services (something the <a href=\"\/news\/of-course-narals-hogue-crazy-about-new-democrat-abortion-platform\/\">majority opposes<\/a>), and an opposition party that\u2019s <a href=\"\/news\/franklin-graham-leaves-gop-amid-paul-ryans-latest-planned-parenthood-surrender\/\">failed to aggressively pursue the issue<\/a> in the court of public opinion. So the poll says nothing about CMP\u2019s credibility or Planned Parenthood\u2019s innocence.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">CMP also had to tangle with the criminal authorities. A grand jury convened by Republicans to dig up dirt on Planned Parenthood instead, after looking at the evidence, <a href=\"http:\/\/prochoice.org\/texas-grand-jury-indicts-daleiden-instead-of-planned-parenthood\/\">chose to indict Daleiden<\/a> and his co-conspirator instead.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>You mean the grand jury that <a href=\"\/news\/the-jury-is-still-out-on-what-actually-happened-with-the\/\">didn&#8217;t actually vote on<\/a> Planned Parenthood\u2019s indictment?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/broadly.vice.com\/en_us\/article\/authorities-raid-home-of-little-shit-behind-planned-parenthood-videos\">California officials have also raided Daleiden\u2019s home<\/a>, confiscating a laptop and multiple hard drives, though no charges have yet been filed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cNo charges have yet been filed\u201d is a funny way to misspell \u201c<a href=\"\/news\/media-tries-to-downplay-daleiden-victory-as-technicality\/\">one was dismissed entirely<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/dailysignal.com\/2016\/01\/26\/pay-no-attention-to-what-planned-parenthood-is-doing-behind-the-curtain\/\">the other is bogus<\/a>\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">In the same month, House Republicans decided to drag Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards into a kangaroo hearing clearly designed to embarrass her. Instead, Richards turned the tables on them, drawing attention to their various falsehoods, which swiftly became fodder for late night comedians.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Marcotte sure has a strange definition of \u201cturning the tables\u201d if it includes <a href=\"\/news\/planned-parenthood-ceo-tells-congress-she-is-proud-of-abortionist-caught-discussing-how-to-crush-babies\/\">standing by<\/a> Nucatola without substantively refuting the allegations against her, <a href=\"\/news\/planned-parenthood-ceo-falsely-told-congress-they-never-claimed-to-provide-mammograms\/\">being forced to admit<\/a> Planned Parenthood doesn\u2019t do mammograms (while falsely claiming never to have claimed otherwise), <a href=\"\/news\/at-congressional-hearing-cecile-richards-claims-planned-parenthood-annual-reports-are-false\/\">falsely denying<\/a> the numbers about Planned Parenthood\u2019s abortion increases, <a href=\"\/news\/planned-parenthood-ceo-admits-to-congress-that-health-clinics-outnumber-abortion-mills\/\">admitting<\/a> real low-income women\u2019s health providers outnumber Planned Parenthood locations, and <a href=\"\/news\/planned-parenthood-president-babies-have-never-born-alive-after-botched-abortions\/\">lying about<\/a> botched abortions.<\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s reasonable compared to Marcotte\u2019s \u201ccase\u201d against Congress\u2019s Select Investigative Panel on Infant Lives. In the interest of clean screens, be sure you\u2019re not drinking anything when you read this next part:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Earlier this week, a diverse coalition of 20 organizations co-signed a letter from the ACLU demanding that Speaker Paul Ryan put an end to this charade.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The signatories include groups like the SEIU, the Sierra Club, the National Immigration Law Center, the NAACP, and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) \u2014 groups that have no relationship to the debate over reproductive rights, but who felt they had to say something.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cNo relationship to the debate over reproductive rights\u201d\u2026other than, y\u2019know, being hard-left advocacy groups and\/or major donors to the Democrat Party. (In fact,\u00a0up until last year, Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards&#8217; husband, Kirk Adams, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.modernhealthcare.com\/article\/20150903\/NEWS\/150909942\">held a high-ranking position<\/a> with the SEIU.) For Marcotte to hype their shilling for a cousin coalition as profound is proof positive that she thinks\u2014and desperately hopes\u2014that her readers are stupid.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">In April, NAF released a report showing that the release of the hoax videos precipitated a rise in anti-clinic violence generally, with the most shocking example being a mass shooting in a Colorado Planned Parenthood, where a man named Robert Dear killed three people, which he justified by spewing incoherent nonsense about \u201cbaby parts\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Sure, Amanda, <a href=\"\/news\/larry-wilmore-reporting-planned-parenthood-facts-inciting-violence\/\">accurately reporting Planned Parenthood&#8217;s activities makes one culpable<\/a> for people reacting badly to true information (never mind <a href=\"\/news\/violence-against-abortionists-extremely-rare-despite-claims\/\">how peaceful 99.99999999% of pro-lifers are or how rare actual anti-abortion violence is<\/a>); by that logic nobody should ever raise awareness of any scandal or crime with any potential to stir intense emotions (for instance, no matter what anyone thinks of Donald Trump, let\u2019s not pretend Marcotte <a href=\"http:\/\/newsbusters.org\/blogs\/nb\/pj-gladnick\/2016\/06\/08\/amanda-marcotte-dilbert-has-gone-fascist\">calling him and his supporters fascists<\/a> isn\u2019t similarly inflammatory).<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s also ignore any possible ulterior motives NAF might have\u2026 like, say, drawing attention away from <a href=\"\/news\/why-national-abortion-federation-is-hiding-videos-from-public\/\">their own role<\/a> in the CMP videos, in which panelists at a NAF conference show a callousness toward dead children that would cast their business in a far less humanitarian light than the \u201cwomen\u2019s health\u201d narrative.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Blackburn\u2019s panel made this worse, by \u201caccidentally\u201d revealing the names of medical researchers in a memo that was easily accessed by the terrorist-minded elements of the anti-choice movement.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The conspiracy mongering is strong with this one. For those (somehow) stumped as to why the names of fetal tissue researchers would be kind of important to investigating fetal tissue research, <a href=\"http:\/\/dailysignal.com\/2016\/04\/06\/heres-why-republicans-are-demanding-names-in-fetal-tissue-probe\/\">read this<\/a> from the Daily Signal\u2019s Kelsey Harkness.<\/p>\n<p>In honorable debates, when one party says things that turn out to be untrue, they incorporate updated information into their understanding of the issue and move on to different arguments. They don\u2019t spend the next year knowingly repeating untrue things. But considering that <a href=\"\/news\/rhrcs-lies-show-which-side-of-abortion-debate-has-the-high-ground\/\">demonstrable lies are the abortion lobby&#8217;s chief currency<\/a>, Marcotte&#8217;s dishonesty should surprise no one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hard core abortion supporter\u00a0Amanda Marcotte has a new\u00a0Salon propaganda piece\u00a0that really raises the bar for dishonest reporting.
