K-Lo, the interesting pattern about Fox News Channel and abortion is they don’t like the topic very much. Bill O’Reilly is much likelier to segments on homosexuality than on abortion. Even Hannity & Colmes do less on abortion-related topics than you might expect.

I’m guessing Greta is only doing this subject because the Laci Peterson case is one of the current high cards in the tabloid-murder deck that networks play to goose ratings. (Remember that the new editor of Ms. is the co-author of her new book.) But I’d say what you heard last night is a function of the intense coverage. The more people feel they get to know Laci, the more human the baby gets in the public mind, which is why Kate Michelman gets so upset at this story.
