[See NewsBusters for more.] The hosts at CBS This Morning on Wednesday cheerleaded for Planned Parenthood, hyping that “donations are going up” and offering softballs to the abortion provider’s president. The journalists offered no push back when Leana Wen repeated the organization’s misleading claim about cancer screenings. Regarding a new law restricting abortion in Missouri, co-host and Democratic donor Gayle King warned, “What do you think, Dr. Wen, that people who don't understand how serious this is?” She then repeated this talking point: “Planned Parenthood is more than just abortions. I think people need to understand that too.”
