Pro-life messages
are not often mentioned on prime time entertainment networks.
Nevertheless, Anna Duggar’s pregnancy announcement made the cut on E! News Wednesday night, along with her tweet against abortion. Anna, wife of Josh Duggar from TLC’s “19 Kids and Counting,” sent out an ultrasound picture of her daughter to her fans Tuesday. E! also shared her accompanying tweet: “But thousands of little girls suffer the pain of abortion each day. Help protect these children.”
This is not the first time a member of the Duggar family has used their pregnancy to highlight the pro-life cause [1]. This past summer, Jill Duggar announced her pregnancy within the first trimester in order to highlight the value of all life, no matter how young.
E! News also recognized Anna Duggar’s announcement on eonline.com [2], which discusses the pro-life message in more detail. This rare neutral coverage of the pro-life movement is something worth supporting in the current media atmosphere.
