Video boosted by Carly Fiorina looks like miscarriage, not abortion – experts

Footage from an anti-Planned Parenthood sting video highlighted by Republican candidate Carly Fiorina is almost definitely a miscarriage, not an abortion, according to several medical experts.

The video received renewed attention after Fiorina urged others to watch it during the second Republican primary debate in September.

The Center for Bio-Ethical Reform (CBR) released a full, 13-minute version of the video last week, with the title “Carly Fiorina is right”. The blurb accompanying the video posted on YouTube states, “This unedited version of the disputed footage proves incontestably that this termination is an abortion.”

The Guardian is not publishing the videos in question, or any direct links to them, but it did ask multiple medical experts to review the footage over the course of the past week because Fiorina’s claims about the video have continued to circulate in the media.

They said they believe there are definitive signs that show the event is a miscarriage that occurred in a hospital, not an abortion clinic.

1. It is and the family has been identified.

It was more an extremely premature birth than a miscarriage. The baby took a few breaths and then expired.

Good prenatal care could have identified the problem that led to the birth at 19 weeks, 5 weeks before viability, but then CMP would have had no picture to lie about.

FUNNY how no one knows about this. Damned liberal media.
