Times Totally Ignores Annual March for Life Wednesday

Times Totally Ignores Annual March for Life Wednesday
By contrast, the Washington Post makes room for a solid story on Page 3.

Last year, the annual pro-life March for Life in Washington garnered just a 350-word story by Sarah Abruzzese, and Times Watch criticized the paper's paucity of coverage. This year, the Times filed…nothing. By contrast, the Washington Post makes room for a solid story on Page 3 of Wednesday's edition.

Ironically, the one reference to the March for Life that appeared in Wednesday's paper came in the sports section, in an AP brief about a college basketball coach at a Catholic university under fire for his pro-abortion views. Coach Rick Majerus of St. Louis University called himself pro-choice at a campaign rally for Hillary Clinton.
