As signatures were being gathered for Proposition 73, the initiative to require pregnant teens to notify a parent before getting an abortion, James Holman's network of Catholic newspapers went to work.
His Los Angeles Lay Catholic Mission profiled a mother who was horrified that her 13-year-old daughter - who she didn't even know was pregnant - was taken to the hospital, bleeding from an abortion.


His San Francisco Faith newspaper ran a boldface headline on a local anti-abortion rally: "Soooooo Impressed! 6000 Pro-Life Marchers Hit the Streets." His San Diego News Notes touted the Proposition 73 campaign with articles repeatedly updating the signature count. And his Spanish-language La Cruz de California paper ran a lead story: "Con el aborto estamos matando a milliones" - With abortion, we are killing millions.

1. It says something

that her daughter was so scared about her mother knowing that she would rather go to the hospital then to let her mother know. I'd say she's a fucked up mother and the proof is her own daugher doesn't trust her.
