A new report from the Associated Press found that abortion rates have dropped by 21 percent since 2010, and anti-abortion groups are once again taking the credit. And, as ever, they had nothing to do with it. The opposite, actually.
When I profiled 25-year-old Live Action founder Lila Rose last year, she told me that her anti-choice nonprofit was more relevant than ever before. What about the critics who claimed the public was sick of Live Action's heavily edited and misleading undercover video "stings" on Planned Parenthood clinics? Totally out…
If you make the mistake of fucking a pro-life dude, don't tell him if you get pregnant. That's what we've gleaned from Live Action's advice for wannabe dads on how to force women into giving birth.
Live Action is back with a new "undercover investigation" which it says depicts an abortion counselor advocating infanticide, similar to — you guessed it — what allegedly went down at Dr. Kermit Gosnell's clinic. Timely! But just as the Gosnell trial only emphasizes how important it is that women have access to safe…
When I spent the day with Lila Rose a few months ago, she and her communications director, Kate Bryan, vaguely alluded to an "upcoming project" in the same tone as one might discuss an impending bake sale. "We're always working on something," Lila said sweetly when I pressed her for more details.
"I'd die to protect another human life," Lila Rose tells me over chicken tenders and french fries. "I'm all in for this cause. Let me do whatever I can do, God, like, use me in whatever way."
Militantly anti-abortion rights group Live Action sure acted like it had exposed some big-time fuckery in its latest Planned Parenthood hidden camera sting operation. From a casual observer's perspective, the sting captured what appears to be footage of a Planned Parenthood employee enthusiastically endorsing…
Over the last few weeks, Planned Parenthood locations across the country have been visited by becostumed actors pretending to be women desperate to know whether or not their baby is a girl so that they can abort it. The similarity of the incidents combined with the strange series of questions asked by the visitors…
Lila Rose, the anti-abortion activist best known for her role in an attempted anti-Planned Parenthood sting operation, is one of what she claims are a "growing number" of anti-choice women who also identify as feminists. And like most anti-abortion, anti-birth control advocates, her argument boils down to a very…
Fake pimp and would-be sex boater James O'Keefe is profiled in the upcoming New York Times magazine. And one anecdote, in which O'Keefe and friends cook up a plan to expose the government's evil plan to prevent black people from marrying each other, is indicative of everything that's wrong with him. (Apart from, you…
Lila Rose, last seen trying to trap Planned Parenthood into providing care to fake teenage prostitutes, is back. This time, the target is a little less sexy: Indiana defunding Planned Parenthood.
Planned Parenthood has said its employees will undergo a new round of training after a bunch of videos secretly recorded by Live Action showed them giving medical information to purported pimps of purported underage prostitutes. Is that a tacit admission of wrongdoing? Beyond the one New Jersey employee who did…
As of just now, Live Action has released three more videos of actors pretending to be pimps and prostitutes in Planned Parenthood clinics, this time in Virginia. What did they find?
The Live Action "sting" against Planned Parenthood has revealed nothing about either abortion care or sex trafficking in America. It has, however, revealed that the right-wing fringe is just recycling—a pimp, again? Let's look at the fallout.
Lila Rose has struck again, now with a video supposedly showing a Milwaukee Planned Parenthood ignoring a statutory rape claim. Planned Parenthood has responded with new training, but the video highlights the difficulties of providing reproductive services to teens.
The undercover video, organized by the group Live Action, of which Lila Rose is president, and posted on Michelle Malkin's blog, purports to catch Planned Parenthood employees in a variety of lies. Below, we break down some of Live Action's claims.
