To expand on my last post a bit, it can only happen if one tries to keep an open mind. I realize it can be difficult sometimes(guilty, but I try) but people could actually learn something new if they weren't so narrow-minded and completely shut off to any ideas than there own. Several on here come to mind.

Did you read this entire article? The concerns addressed by Snopes are the same concerns/complaints raised by the law Review itself as to the way some of their articles are presented by "journalistic media".
The only "false" rating by snopes is that the article is not a "study" Everything in the article is true, vetted and cited. If anyone can find fault with any cite within the article it should be brought to the attention of the current Editor of the Harvard Law Review who will immediately remove the article and publish the appropriate retraction.

Now if only journalism had the same ethics.

  • Unlike Cowboy's claim, it's NOT peer-reviewed.
  • It's NOT a study either.
  • "It misrepresented separate research to draw shaky, unsupported conclusions."

    Or as CowboyKell would say, unbiased!!

    • It IS peer reviewed. All Law Reviews, including this one, are peer reviewed. The entire process is based on peer review. That is why it's called a review.

    So lets take a look at the young reporter, Ms. LaCapria (Some content edited out by the boss for legal reasons, but you can look it up yourself.) A big miss on the peer review, which according to the rules of Forkush means all of her statements are suspect. She claims misrepresentations and shaky, unsupported conclusions. Yet when one reads the article and follows up on the cites (which I invite everyone to do) nothing seems misrepresented and every statement is supported, mostly by the cited authors themselves.

    It's a Law Review article Forky, there is little or no writing in the world more supported.

    The truth is unbiased.

    Well she did attend the Fashion Institute of Technology for art and design, so I'm sure she must be highly qualified to critique law review articles. Heck, I bet Forkush never even worked as an esthetician and makeup artist.

    Watch, I'll do it right now.

    Here is a paper that argues that access to information about safe abortion is a human right. It's from a Harvard law REVIEW! It has 327 footnotes! Does anyone with a functioning brainstem think that footnotes, "Harvard," or the word "review" makes this obviously partisan article "unbiased." Good, I didn't think so.

    How about you, CowboyKell?

    Did you read that article? I mean really read and understand it?
    Do you disagree with it?
    Where is the bias? Where is the partisanship?

    Have you found any biased untruths in the first article yet? Are you still looking or are you just trying to change the subject and hope everyone forgets?

    Every little chart and graph you put forth to prove your point comes from highly biased media/pseudo journalism sources and you want to question the bias of a Law Review article.
    Post up a counter point by the Stanford Law review (a liberal mind set Law School if there ever was one). I will accept their Review as the unbiased truth as well.

    How long does a baby's brainstem last under Forkie's policy. Babies lives matter.

    Well thanks for clearing that up Spiro.

    So you're claiming that my recent cites such as Standard & Poor's, The Los Angeles Times, Business Insider, The Kaiser Family Foundation, and Money Magazine are all part of the "librul media." Meanwhile, a journal that proudly proclaims it's conservative viewpoint, has exclusively conservative contributors, and prints law review articles from folks like ultra right-wing Ron Paul, a very non-lawyerly gynecologist, is unbiased!

    I disagree.
