  • NPR Mideast Coverage April - June 2012
    NPR Mideast Coverage April - June 2012 This report covers NPR's reporting on events and trends related to the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians during the second quarter of 2012. The report begins with an assessment of the 37 stories and interviews, covered by this review, that aired from April through June on radio shows produced by NPR. The 37 radio items is just one more than the lowest number for any quarter (in July-September 2008) during the past ten years. Over that period, NPR programs have carried an average of nearly 100 items per quarter related to Israel, the Palestinians, or both. I also reviewed 20 news stories, blogs and other items carried exclusively on NPR's website. All of the radio and website-only items covered by this review are shown on the "Israel-Palestinian coverage" page of the website. The opinions expressed in this report are mine alone. Accuracy I carefully reviewed all items for factual accuracy, with special attention to the radio stories, interviews and website postings produced by NPR staffers. NPR's coverage of the region continues to be remarkably accurate for a news organization with very tight deadlines. NPR has posted no corrections on its website for stories that originated during the April-June quarter; two corrections were posted in April concerning items dealt with in my report for the January-March quarter. I found no outright inaccuracies during the period, but I will point out two instances of misleading use of language. Freelance correspondent Sheera Frenkel reported for All Things Considered on May 8 about the status of a hunger strike among Palestinian prisoners.

J _j. c files this complaint seeking an immediate investigation by the 7 c; a > Federal Election Commission into the illegal spending A* practices of the National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee (WRSCIt). As the public record shows, and an investigation will confirm, the NRSC and a series of ostensibly nonprofit, nonpartisan groups have undertaken a significant and sustained effort to funnel "soft money101 into federal elections in violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended or "the Act"), 2 U.S.C. 5s 431 et seq., and the Federal Election Commission (peFECt)Regulations, 11 C.F.R. 85 100.1 & sea.

THE FACTS IN TBIS CABE On November 24, 1992, the state of Georgia held a unique runoff election for the office of United States Senator. Georgia law provided for a runoff if no candidate in the regularly scheduled November 3 general election received in excess of 50 percent of the vote. The 1992 runoff in Georg a was a hotly contested race between the Democratic incumbent Wyche Fowler, and his Republican opponent, Paul Coverdell. The Republicans presented this election as a %ust-win81 election. Exhibit 1.

WADE: A CASE FOR NATIONAL ABORTION LEGISLATION Kathryn N. Peachman† INTRODUCTION Forty-six years ago, the Supreme Court ruled that a woman had a fundamental legal right to decide whether to end her pregnancy under substantive due process protection. Yet today, that right sometimes appears to remain no more solidified than it did in 1973 with the decision of Roe v. Wade. This country has remained extremely divided on the issue of abortion, and courts and state legislatures continue to erode the effectiveness of the right given by Roe and limit the opportunities women have to exercise control over their own bodies.

  • Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA)
    Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) Following the Supreme Court’s closely divided decision to uphold the first-ever federal ban on abortion in 20071, it became clear that the stakes changed and the right to choose was facing a new level of assault. That’s why the pro-choice community supports the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) – a measure that would codify Roe v. Wade’s protections and guarantee the right to choose for future generations of women. Recognizing that a woman’s right to choose is being chipped away both by the courts and state lawmakers, the pro-choice community – led by Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) and Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) – has been working to enact a federal law2 that would restore the right to choose as expressed in 1973 in Roe v. Wade. Since Roe v. Wade was decided, a woman’s right to choose has been systematically eroded by anti-choice legislators in states around the country. In fact, between 1995 and 2015, states enacted over 870 anti-choice measures3, essentially rolling back this fundamental right for many women. With a woman’s right to choose already in a precarious state, Former President Bush’s appointment of John Roberts (2005) and Samuel Alito (2006) to the Supreme Court further threatens the constitutional protection for reproductive rights – a threat immediately made evident in the court’s ruling in Gonzales v. Carhart, Gonzales v. Planned Parenthood Federation of America, McCullen v. Coakley, and Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc. In the Carhart decision, the newly reconfigured court – with Bush’s appointees Roberts and Alito casting decisive votes – upheld the first-ever federal ban on a safe abortion method – with criminal penalties for doctors.4 More troubling, the decision effectively reversed Supreme Court precedent and rolled back key protections that were guaranteed by Roe v.
