Media bias in abortion debate misuses Kopp arrest
Cal Thomas argues that coverage of James Kopp’s 1998 murder arrest and HBO’s Soldiers in the Army of God distorts pro-life views. He says media elevate extremists, suppress responsible pro-life voices, and push a pro-choice agenda by framing abortion opponents as violent. The piece contrasts civil rights coverage and defends nonviolent pro-life positions.
