The mainstream media has been studiously avoiding the trial of abortion butcher Kermit Gosnell, despite the kind of stomach-churning testimony that would normally attract headline coverage.

KERMIT GOSNELL’S HOUSE OF SCREAMS - John Hayward/Human Events @Doc_o

The latest, from Delaware Online:
A Delaware woman who worked for abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell recalled hearing one child “screaming” after it was delivered alive during an abortion procedure at Gosnell’s West Philadelphia clinic.

Sherry West, of Bear, said she was loyal to Gosnell – who is now facing multiple counts of murder for allegedly killing children after they were delivered alive at his clinic – but said the incident “really freaked me out.”
West herself is facing up to 100 years in prison, having admitted to third-degree murder, and testified as part of a plea deal. She offered a chilling look at how Gosnell ran his little shop of horrors...

During busy times, when the women were given drugs to induce contractions all at once, (another co-defendant, Steven) Massof told the court that “it would rain fetuses. Fetuses and blood all over the place.”

“I felt like a firemen in hell. I couldn’t put out all the fires,” he said.

The people testifying in this trial keep dropping sound bites that would command headlines in any other context, but there’s virtually no Big Media coverage of the story, and certainly no attempt to build a narrative around the obvious questions of “How did this happen?” and “Is this happening anywhere else?” The normal media search for “lessons” from a shocking incident seems to have been put on indefinite hold. Will their interest finally be aroused by the chilling detail of a baby screaming out loud during an abortion procedure?
