An Example of Media Bias~38th Annual March for Life vs Immigration Protest

Published by Papa Giorgio

CNN devoted three and a half minutes of coverage on Monday’s Newsroom to a protest by “two dozen, maybe three dozen” people who were against two proposed laws targeting illegal immigration in Arizona. The network showed live and taped footage of this liberal protest. By contrast, CNN spent a mere 11 seconds to the March for Life in January and showed no footage from the pro-life demonstration.

Thank you for making the 38th annual March for Life the biggest and most enthusiastic ever! The number of marchers who made the journey to our nation’s capital once again exceeded the record number of participants that attended the previous year. Some estimaters pegged the number at approximately 400,000, about the same as 2010. But other experienced observers thought that the crowd was much larger than last year, especially considering that tens of thousands of marchers got a jump start and reached Capitol Hill before the main contingent even left the staging area!

So you have all these members of Congress, plus about 400,000 people, not to mention the many elsewhere — for instance, most capitals and or major cities had marches. And while these were not as large as the Washington march… they were still more than dozens of people giving Arizona another “black eye.”
