Correction Request: Media Matters Fudges Truth On Planned Parenthood Services

In a bid to discredit the Live Action’s investigation of Planned Parenthood as a “hoax,” Media Matters forgot that fact-checking matters most.

Says Media Matters:

This is false.

Live Action called two clinics in Waco, in addition to the one in Tucson, Arizona (heard on tape in the video below) and were told that no, the clinics do not provide mammogram screenings. In fact, Planned Parenthood clinics in Texas are not licensed to have mammogram machines:

Of the 14 Planned Parenthood abortion clinics in Texas, not a single one has either license or equipment.

Media Matters also states:

Providing “access” to mammograms is not the same as giving them. They simply give a referral to a health care facility that provides them, something anyone can do.

We call on Media Matters to correct their post.
