@VeraMBergen 1/15ใWhen did it become acceptable for journalists at TIME to repeat a preposterous, anonymous, evidence-free accusation, without even mentioning that the target of that accusation denies it? This is not reporting, it's shameful propaganda.
@TIME, @VeraMBergen, @abbyabrams
@TIME, @VeraMBergen, @abbyabrams
@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 2/15ใThe TIME / Bergengruen / Abrams accusation that Prestonwood told a woman she could carry an ectopic pregnancy to term if she was 'careful' is obviously a lie. No pregnancy care center would ever tell a pregnant woman that she could safely carry an ectopic pregnancy to term.
@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 3/15ใI emailed Prestonwood, and they confirmed that @TIME's accusation is a lie. Prestonwood told me:
"โฆwe gave a statement [to TIME] that they chose not to use. The article, in reference to us, is not true. We would never tell anyone that they could carry an ectopic safely."
"โฆwe gave a statement [to TIME] that they chose not to use. The article, in reference to us, is not true. We would never tell anyone that they could carry an ectopic safely."
@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 4/15ใThe fact that a pro-life PCC would never tell someone she could safely carry an ectopic pregnancy seems pretty obvious. But it turns out the authors KNEW Prestonwood denies the accusation, yet they omitted that fact from their article. That's remarkably corrupt.
@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 5/15ใHowever, even without checking with the CPC, a careful reader would have noticed several problems with this article, which raise obvious red flags about its veracity:
@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 6/15ใ๐. There's no mention in the article of having sought a response to the accusation from Prestonwood Pregnancy Center. No responsible journalist would print an accusation without giving the accused party an opportunity to respond. So where is it?
@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 7/15ใ๐. The accusation is anonymous hearsay. TIME identified the accuser only by first name, and coyly couched the accusation with, "Ashley saysโฆ" That way, when accused of lying, they can offer the defense, "WE didn't accuse them, we just reported what someone ELSE said."
@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 8/15ใ๐. Part of the accusation is obviously false: TIME said Ashley's pregnancy might've been ectopic & implied Prestonwood's counselor tried to get her to delay a decision, at risk to her life, until it was illegal to abort.
But aborting an ectopic pregnancy is never illegal.
But aborting an ectopic pregnancy is never illegal.
@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 9/15ใWhen someone is obviously seeking to mislead you about one thing, if you're wise then you'll know that you cannot trust anything else they have to say โ the more so when the other thing they're saying is a completely unsupported accusation against a third party.
@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 10/15ใTIME, Vera Bergengruen & Abigail Abrams are fanning the flames of hatred against Christian pro-life pregnancy care centers, with scurrilous lies โ and they're doing it in the midst of a wave of violence by abortion supporters against PCCs.

@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 11/15ใKilling an unborn baby is an act of unspeakable violence, so I guess it should not surprise anyone that the people who justify that, and even make a business of it, are sometimes violent toward other people, as well.

@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 13/15ใThe simple truth is that abortion kills babies. It takes a very hard heart to not understand that that's evil.
@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 14/15ใPrestonwood also told me, in their email:
"โฆwe have registered nurses and medical doctors that if we did make such a dangerous statement, it would put their medical licenses at risk."
That seems pretty obvious, too, doesn't it? TIME's lie wasn't even remotely plausible.

@VeraMBergen @TIME @abbyabrams 15/15ใA takeaway lesson is that you simply cannot trust the abortion industry.
That, too, should be obvious. After all, they're in the business of killing babies. What's a little lying, to someone like that?
And, sadly, @TIME is a mouthpiece for the abortion industry.
