A victory for truth on reproductive rights.

A victory for truth on reproductive rights.
Last night’s Veronica Mars episode centered around a young woman who has a miscarriage after a friend slips her the abortion pill RU-486. But the CW network’s promotional materials said that the morning-after pill caused the miscarriage.
You wrote to CW to protest this false information, and CW today responded in an e-mail to ThinkProgress:
Last night’s episode of Veronica Mars dealt specifically with RU-486 and was referenced throughout the show. The episodic description in our press materials and on our website has been revised to reflect that.
CW told us that it has no plans to change the title of the episode, “There’s Got To Be A Morning After Pill.” See the updated website here.

TP? Could you do something with this posters name?
ValiantVenusGrewFromUranus
It is mischaracterizing someone elses name in a bad light.
Your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.
ValiantVenusGrewFromUranus needs to be BANNED!
February 7th, 2007 at 9:29 pmWow. Even if you’re just a troll, it never ceases to amaze me how such dark terrible things come out of the mouths of angry conservatives.
Think about it…YOU are the one whose mind came up up with that. Not the Liberals you despise. You.
February 7th, 2007 at 9:31 pmHi Molly, a “friend” of anyone?
February 7th, 2007 at 9:31 pm@Inconvenient enough for you?
Wha? Besides the fact that your comment is just plain silly, what in the world does this have to do with children or a national emergency?
Why do conservatives want to bring down the world by pretending that young teenagers have sex?
February 7th, 2007 at 9:33 pm#1- Man, you’re a sick lemon twist. Is that REALLY what you want to do to men, women and children in the dark when you go door to door? You want to try to pass off these perverse feelings to someone else, but you’re the one who invented them, wing-nut. If I were going to try out any sadistic acts on anyone, it would have to be with some really interesting blow-up doll, JUST LIKE YOU, screw-ball.
February 7th, 2007 at 9:34 pmwas the song, of the same title (minus pill), played for this show?
February 7th, 2007 at 9:43 pmcould explain something… from poseidon adventure…
just curious… have a hunch it’s a play on that song lyric…
Molly did de-rail us pretty good.
Anyhoy, good job TP, they changed it. Good job to the author of the posts.

February 7th, 2007 at 9:50 pmWhy is it any thread that has anything to do with gay issues, sex, promiscuity or abortion rights will bring the frigging nut cases crawling out of the woodwork like cockroaches? It must have something to do with the indoor plumbing. Hmmm…
This is a re-post from the ThinkFast this morning:
TP Commenters!
I exchanged emails with Faiz last night regarding our most persistent troll. Basically, he said that when the nasty stuff comes up, we should let him know right away. He needs to know the moniker the trouble-maker is using. (I just copy & paste the entire comment and then email it to him, identifying which thread it’s on.) He said he’s trying to weed out this garbage.
We should not feed this troll! It thrives on the attention! Just copy it to Faiz, and move on.
Faiz also said it’s ok to use some naughty language, but it reflects poorly on our community. Oh heck…
