When there is no good choice, NBC News, June 9, 2008. (Archive link here.)
This piece greatly shaped my views on late-term abortion when I was younger. The common religious framing of late-term abortions as "baby murder" deliberately deemphasizes the fact that most of these babies are very much wanted, but usually have various abnormalities that prevent them from being viable. It demonizes women who are making some of the hardest and most painful choices of their life.
(The article also mentions Dr. George Tiller, the American abortion provider who was assassinated by an anti-abortion extremist in 2009.)
