Overreacting much?

yes, freedom to do exactly as I say. I'm just still in awe of their interpretation of Krispy Kreme's original statement

I'm a bit disappointed in Reuters as well - I thought they had a reputation as a neutral reporting source, but the headline alone was a giveaway as to which side they're on.

You know, that's a very good point. Although, while I'm not a journalist, I'd be hard pressed to come up with a neutral way of reporting that.

I suppose you can use the name that most of the 'pro' group use for themselves, and say "pro-choice" instead of "pro-abortion".

Also I thought they were very blurry with what sections were quotes from the American Life League and what was their editorial opinion.

It's interesting- to compare when pro-life, pro-choice, anti-live, pro-abortion is used

in this case though the American Life League used the term pro-abortion

I suppose as a journalist I could have said: "American Life League declares Krispy Kreme to be pro-abortion", as a statement of fact, while trying not to take sides.

yeah, that would have been a lot more presenting the facts as opposed to pushing one side over the other
