CNN's Alisyn Camerota actually pressed Planned Parenthood executive vice president Dawn Laguens on the 4 August 2015 edition of New Day over the controversy surrounding the abortion organization's sale of organs and other tissues from aborted babies. Camerota wondered, "As a result of these [undercover] videos...is there any soul searching that's going on in Planned Parenthood today – not, obviously, about the mission statement of what Planned Parenthood does – but, perhaps, about the method or the means of talking about it?"

The anchor also spotlighted how "even Hillary Clinton...even people in the Democratic Party have called these videos disturbing." She also noted that "it does appear, from the snippets that have seen in the public, as though something unscrupulous is happening."
