Nightline co-anchor Cynthia McFadden on Wednesday spent the entire program investigating the possible closing of the last remaining abortion clinic in Mississippi. For a program that's devolved into a celebrity-obsessed tabloid, it was a surprising return to the Nightline of old. However, McFadden still tilted towards the pro-abortion side.
After being bluntly told by an abortion protester that the killing of unborn babies is immoral, McFadden lectured, "Well so that doesn't sound loving." The anchor also referred to those who demonstrate outside clinics as "hard-core," not a term she used for the other side. However, McFadden and Nightline should be commended for doing an entire show on this topic and for giving time to both sides of this issue.
