I wonder how mainstream media journalists feel about stories like
Abuse, sex crimes spur expanded police force (April 11) and revelations
like “family violence incidents rose 55 per cent in seven years”.
Because the media (mostly print) are accessories after the fact. For years
they’ve denied the reality that domestic violence really begins in that most
intimate home – the root of the word ‘domestic’ is the Latin ‘domus’ meaning
‘home’ – a home which is common to us all, our mother’s womb.
A meta-analysis
showing abortion increases mental ill-health in women by 81 per cent has been
criticised, as is only to be expected, but the evidence is overwhelmingly
against abortion. Common sense is all that’s needed to identify the invasion of
the uterus by force, or through the mother’s bloodstream by toxic chemicals, as
violence.
I’m more sorry than I can say but the grisly truth is, this violence is
perpetrated by the mother and accordingly permeates all strata of society.
The
Dominion Post, preferring to entertain and distract rather than
inform, gives the best part of three pages to John Clarke.
Will it give a couple of column inches to the truth? I doubt it.
