Los Angeles Times Denies Abortion's Link to Breast Cancer, Depression

Los Angeles, Times (LifeNews.com) -- The Los Angeles Times is coming under fire again for biased news reporting on the issue of abortion. This time, Times report Stephanie Simon has interjected her own views into an article on new figures showing abortion's decline by claiming pregnancy centers mislead women about abortion's risks. "Some of the material given to women at such sessions [at these centers] is false or misleading -- for example, warnings that abortion raises the risk of breast cancer or causes post-traumatic stress disorder," Simon claims. But Dave Pierre, who writes for the Media Research Center's blog Newsbusters, says the Time sis ignoring a wealth of evidence showing that abortion increases the breast cancer risk and that abortion leads to a myriad of mental health problems. "The Times and Simon, despite the loads of evidence contradicting them, continue to deny the numerous studies asserting the link between abortion and an increased risk of breast cancer," Pierre writes. In fact, an October study published in the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons found abortion the best predictor of whether women will contract breast cancer.
