Here’s a story about the extreme hardship one woman went through to secure an out of state abortion in the US. Long flights, delays, and high cost, never mind the stigma and need to keep it quiet. And this woman was among the lucky who can afford the trip and procedure, and take the time from work.
It’s heartbreaking to read stories like these.
It’s to prevent normalization. If you keep it in the news, then people will remember it when election time comes around.
the media constantly reports on mass shootings and has done nothing to stop them it has only normalized the behavior, now nobody gives a shit. im not really sure how anyone constantly being exposed to the same situation wouldnt eventually normalize it. i stand by the women who are pro-choice but this isnt helping the situation at all its just giving CNN more ad money.
Especially in the case of mass shootings, there is an argument to be made that the way reporting is done on them actually makes the problem worse.
