News giant goes ‘incendiary’ to be ‘unfair’ to pregnancy centers

The Associated Press, which was begun as a way for newspapers in different cities to share stories with each other by teletype, has embarked on an agenda to attack pro-lifers in America that actually “jeopardizes the vulnerable women” who turn to various pregnancy centers.

So explains Ashley McGuire, a senior fellow with the Catholic Association, in a commentary at Real Clear Wire.

She explained the legacy news cooperative recently made a decision to call pregnancy resource centers “anti-abortion centers.”

It was just the organization’s “latest politically motivated shot” at pro-lifers, she explained.

“This one is rhetorical, of course, and language isn’t violence,” she noted. “But in a culture rife with political violence, the language isn’t irrelevant. The AP, of all entities, should know this.”

She pointed out that since the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision last year overturned the faulty Roe precedent that created a “right” to abortion, “more than 80 pregnancy centers have been attacked or vandalized, some of them firebombed or torched, others painted over with death threats. If you include churches that have been attacked, that number is well over 200. Never mind the attempt on a Supreme Court justice’s life.”

She explained the AP’s decision to call pregnancy centers “anti-abortion,” “jeopardizes the vulnerable women that turn to them for help by dragging them into the political spotlight and straight into the line of sight of violent anti-abortion extremists.”

She charged, “The AP’s mischaracterization of these centers does more than push incendiary language. It’s flat-out biased and unfair – and that would be true coming from anyone, much less from an enterprise claiming to be the literal vanguard of journalistic integrity.”

She cited what pregnancy centers actually do: provide gifts, baby clothes, diapers, wipes and formula, pay medical bills, housing, job assistance, offer encouragement and more.

“Many pro-life pregnancy centers go so far as to offer moms job training and even a home to live in as they transition through the postpartum stage. They exist to offer women who are seeking a refuge from the pervasive cultural pressure to abort and the support they need to thrive as the moms they want to be, no matter how challenging the circumstances of their pregnancy. This is not first and foremost ‘anti-abortion.’ This is authentically and comprehensively pro-woman,” she explained.

She noted while a Marist poll found 90% of Americans support these centers and the work they do, they are targeted by pro-abortion radicals, one of whom encouraged those in agreement to “burn, to cut, to jam: now is the time.”

“Now they have the Associated Press to help them make a list of targets,” McGuire said.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Long the world’s most Christian nation, America today is being taken over by a new “official” national religion, one being imposed on the entire populace by every major societal institution, from government, media and big tech, to academia, entertainment and business.

This new state religion is Wokeism. “Going woke” conjures up visions of someone claiming to be acutely sensitive (“awake”) to “systemic social and political injustice.” And not just alleged bigotry against blacks, but toward every other “minority” as well, from LGBT folk – especially everything transgender and “nonbinary” – to “undocumented immigrants.” All of them, being VICTIMS, intrinsically more virtuous than the shameful oppressor class: primarily heterosexual white males.

This new “woke” consciousness has turned America upside-down – from the nationwide Antifa and Black Lives Matter riots in 2020, to tearing down of historic monuments, to demanding multi-million-dollar reparation payments for blacks, to appointing transgenders as top government officials, to rampant reverse discrimination in every area of life, to the U.S. military imposing mandatory “diversity training” and transgender pronoun use on all personnel, causing recruitment to disastrously plummet.

Yet there is hope. Being “saved” – which in Wokeism is called being “woke” – is largely a matter of worshipping victimhood by becoming an “ally” and “defender” of all the many victim classes, and a determined enemy of the straight white male oppressor class. Thus, “joining the righteous” as an ally – even if one is cursed to be a straight white male – opens the door mercifully for salvation, even to the most wretched.

That is the power of the religion of Wokeism. And it’s explored as never before in the February 2023 issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine. If you’ve ever wondered, for example, exactly how the most radical elements in American society are successfully pressuring the biggest corporations into adopting the most outrageous and immoral policies imaginable, even when doing so permanently damages and devalues the company, the stunning answers are in this issue of Whistleblower, titled “WOKEISM: AMERICA’S OFFICIAL STATE RELIGION.”
