MRC analysts looked at 86 stories and/or interview segments on the Big Three (ABC, CBS, NBC) evening and morning shows from the morning of May 3 (the day after the Supreme Court abortion case leak) through the morning of May 10 and found a whopping disparity in soundbites and guest appearances with abortion advocates overwhelming abortion opponents by a 153 to 57 count.

Yes, viewers of these programs were almost three times more likely to see strident pro-abortion supporters such as Hillary Clinton, Senator Elizabeth Warren and Planned Parenthood president Alexis McGill Johnson than they were pro-life advocates like Live Action founder and president Lila Rose or Senator Mitch McConnell.

CBS featured the most abortion advocates (61) to just 17 pro-life voices. NBC aired 53 abortion supporters to 27 pro-life advocates. ABC aired 39 abortion proponents to just 13 pro-lifers.
