Video Lunch: Crisis Pregnancy Centers: A Special Report

Hunter Stewart takes a close look at "crisis pregnancy centers," some of which are federally funded, that often give out inaccurate medical information, prosthelytize and use shame and scare tactics when counseling women. For instance, in the video, one crisis pregnancy center counselor tells a young woman that abortion increases her risk of breast cancer by 100%. The sources for this claim are studies published over 25 years ago and now thoroughly debunked. The WHO, whose 1970 report the crisis pregnancy center's literature cites, now states clearly on its website that abortion does not affect a woman's risk of contracting breast cancer.
