CBC WRITER BLAMES ANTI-ABORTIONISTS FOR NYC TERROR ATTACKS

OTTAWA, September 19, 2001 (LSN.ca) - In an editorial in today's Financial Post section of the National Post, Terrance Corcoran reveals that a CBC writer blamed the terrorist attacks on New York on "anti-abortionists."

Corcoran wrote on page B19 of the paper, "Another adventure into the ideological absurd was a CBC Radio interview, on the day of the attack, with a writer who disliked the idea that Islamic terrorists were being singled out as the likely perpetrators. Instead, he offered the implausible conclusion that the destruction of the World Trade Center could have been the work of American right-wing extremists. Among the possibilities, he said, were U.S. anti-abortion activists."
