Planned Parenthood accepted donations from people who specifically wanted to eliminate black babies. Of course, the media give them a pass, but you gotta appreciate the consistency of Planned Parenthood (their founder, Margaret Sanger, was a eugenicist – read the link for more).
Ohio representative: Lisa Hutton, administrative assistant
Ohio donor: There’s definitely way too many Black people in Ohio, so I am just trying to do my part.
PP Rep: OK, whatever.
Ohio donor: Well, Blacks especially need abortions, so that’s what I’m trying to do.
PP Rep: For whatever reason, we’ll accept the money.
Ohio donor: OK. Great, thank you. Idaho representative: Autumn Kersey, director of development Idaho donor: The abortion—I can give money specifically fror a black baby, that would be the purpose?PP Rep: Absolutely. If you wanted to designate that your gift be used to help an African-American woman in need, then we would certainly make sure that the gift was earmarked for that purpose.
Idaho donor: Great, because I really faced trouble with affirmative action, and I don’t want my kids to be disadvantaged against black kids. I just had a baby; I want to put it in his name.
PP Rep: Yes, absolutely. Idaho donor: And we don’t, you know we just think, the less black kids out there the better. PP Rep: Understandable, understandable. Idaho donor: Right. I want to protect my son, so he can get into college.
PP Rep: Alright. Excuse my hesitation, this is the first time I’ve had a donor call and make this kind of request, so I’m excited, and want to make sure I don’t leave anything out.

You might think they’d at least work on their phone skills after being exposed for hiding statutory rapes (all caught on audio).

“Reprehensible”, “contemptable”, words like these fail to describe the emotions provoked by this story. One can imagine the PP rep just trying to employ the “the customer’s always right” philosophy, but then to hear words like “I’m excited” about this new request gives one pause. I’ve heard other “sting” phone-calls to these lost souls and it’s clear that there is nothing that keeps them from accepting a “patient”. Callers posing as underaged girls, with the obvious statutory rape angle over them, and now this. Anyone who supports PP obviously supports the killing of the unborn. I don’t buy their sob stories regarding the plights of the women who go down this road. PP is the worst path to take.
Hi Neil,
Good post. Heath has this video along with one with John Piper talking about abortion. The Piper video is excellent.

Is this real?
My heart screams!! What evil!!
OK. My position on abortion should be clear. I’m against it. My position on criminializing it is clear, too: I’m against it. I will not engage either of those points in this thread.
My comment has to do with the “media gave them a pass” remark.
One. As sick as it is, why doesn’t it rise to the level of a national news story, I mean a front-page, on-the-evening-news story? Because while it’s outrageous, and while it’s great fodder for the anti-abortion cause, it’s not a national news story, that’s why.
Two. It’s out there. It’s on this blog. Presumably others, too. The media, therefore, is on it — just not to the level you think it should be. And, in fact, if enough bloggers blog about it, and something else occurs as a result, the eeeeviiiillll MSM will pick it up. So, blog on!
ER, “it’s not a national news story” is hardly the most illuminating answer to why it doesn’t rise to the level of a national news story.
Like Bubba pointed out in so many words:
—-
Why it doesn’t rise to the level of a national news story?
Because it’s not a national news story….
Why isn’t it a national news story?
Because it hasn’t risen to the level needed to be a national news story…
—-
Ummmm…. ok lol – I could hardly resist hehe
Honestly, the corruption of PP should be more exposed. – That is one plan that needs to be annihilated.
Send a copy of it to every African American church might do for a starter. If Sangner started her business targeting African American preachers to pass her ideology on, seems like they ought to hear this side, too. I just don’t understand with stuff like this why NAACP and people like Jesse Jackson don’t have a fit over it. It is so ironic that white suburbanites are more concerned about the fate of African American babies being aborted than African Americans. At our Pregnancy Care Center, we see a much larger percentage of African American girls than any other group, but we can not get African American Churches interested in helping, but for a couple. They tend to be more concerned about white guys beating up on one black guy than the millions of African American babies aborted at Planned Parenthood.
ER- Why don’t you write a story on this and make it national news worthy?Please!
Re, “I just don’t understand with stuff like this why NAACP and people like Jesse Jackson don’t have a fit over it.”
THIS is why it’s not a national news story. (Sorry, I wasn’t very awake earlier). The fact that such a sordid conversation took place — eh? So what? Sicker things are said, and done, all over the place every day.
It keeps getting around, it’ll become newsy enough to get some MS press.
Re, “ER- Why don’t you write a story on this and make it national news worthy?”
Elisa, I am a humble scribe reporting on a specific beat. I don’t get to report on just anything.
But I did just send a note about it to a friend of mine who is a media mucky-mucky high up in the organization of a conservative Christian news maker. The story does deserve wider reporting.
ER is absolutely right. The mainstream media really is a very reliable arbiter of what instances of racism constitutes national news — like the use of Barack Obama’s middle name, or whether SNL used a white actor to play Obama.
Whether the mainstream media covers a story is proof that the media should cover a story. If it can be dragged kicking and streaming to the story, then it’s proof that the story should have been covered. If it can’t, the it’s proof that it shouldn’t have been covered.
The media is infallible in determining the newsworthiness of a story.
Eh, disregard the last comment: it was needlessly snarky, and I hadn’t seen ER’s latest comment that, yes, the story is newsworthy.
Sorry about that. Carry on.
This is crazy. Number one abortion is wrong. Number two to say that there are too many blacks is just down right evil and hateful. I will be praying for the people at Planned Parenthood.
In contrast to Planned Parenthood . . .

This is one in the Bay Area. I think there are more throughout the U.S.
Bubba: Snarkiness disregarded. Point taken up: News people do, in fact, determine the news worthiness of news. That’s a fact. When and if news people fail to determine the newsworthiness of news to suit someone, that someone starts up competiting news sources. Blogdom is that, by definition, and will be mainstream eventually, and something else will come along. All of which is to say: Since the excesses of news peoples’ extremes, or myopia, are self-correcting, it can be said that the media, as an institution, but not necessarily the current crop at any given time, actually ARE infallible in determining newsworthiness, although there is a lag time.
(Part of that’s just me blowing. But I believe the nut of it. I get to decide what news is, and you don’t, ha ha ha — ijn the same way an appraiser gets to determine the value of your house, not you.)
BTW, my friend said he’d look into the Planned Parenthood-racism-sting.
I understand that newspeople determine the newsworthiness of a story, but they don’t do so infallibly.
“Infallible” doesn’t mean “correcting over time.” It means not making any mistakes to begin with, implying that there’s nothing to correct.
[...] As if you needed more incriminating evidence against the abortion forces… 4 03 2008 Neil has a piece here, (mainly a transcript, but you need to see it and click on the links in it) entitled Planned Parenthood (not) in the news again. [...]
Bubba: Infallible means “without error”! I’m saying that the media in this country make NO ERRORS, as an institutution, because they are not in a position to be CORRECT in the first place, because everything the media has ever reported, or ever will, is subject to people who will disagree with it.
Good Lord! If you’re looking to the media — including blogs — for the “truth,” STOP wasting your time.
Bowing out. I’m not looking for a fight, and you made it clear with your first comment to me on this thread — hasty, angry, prideful, stupid — that you are.
Enjoy your self.
ER, it seems like an exaggeration to say that Bubba was being “hasty, angry, prideful and stupid” because he wrote, ““it’s not a national news story” is hardly the most illuminating answer to why it doesn’t rise to the level of a national news story.”
ER, when a comment I added later in this discussion was needlessly snarky, I apologized, and I was under the impression that you accepted that apology.
I’m not spoiling for a fight, but I did think your earlier comment lacked substance, and I’m struggling to understand the substance of your more recent comments.
You earlier implied that the media is self-correcting, but now you write that they “are not in a position to be CORRECT in the first place.”
If you want to say that there’s no such thing as truth, you shouldn’t invoke terms like infallibility, as that term implies that there really is such a thing as error but that a document or person or institution is incapable of it.
Well there is a history of planned parenthood being racist it is just that they got caught but the eugenics mivement has always been around and they did not stop when the nazis lost the war.
Sweet so you baited some uneducated phone jockey into saying something racist. Congratulations.
Hi James – sorry, a couple paragraphs ran together there. The 2nd person was a director of development. I encourage you to read the whole thing and listen to the calls – especially on the link about the statutory rape calls – there were hundreds of those, I believe.
