The Observer has dismissed Google adverts linked to organisations promoting pregnancy support but not abortion as nothing more than ‘biased marketing’. UK charities including Life and the Pregnancy Crisis Helpline were criticised by the newspaper for offering women pro-life advice about their pregnancies. In a similar move last week, a documentary for the BBC’s flagship investigative series Panorama branded Newcastle-based Tyneside Pregnancy Advice Centre (TPAC) ‘coercive’, ‘manipulative’ and ‘deceptive’. The newspaper made no criticism of adverts promoting adverts promoting abortions from MSI Reproductive Choices and the British Pregnancy Advisory Service. This enabled Christian groups across the globe to place ads on the subject of abortion in a factual and campaigning way.
