MSNBC Fake News: Missouri Pro-Life Law Will Prevent Cancer Screenings!

Craig Melvin Reports guest host Yasmin Vossoughian and correspondent Ellison Barber ratcheted up MSNBC’s crusade against state-level pro-life laws on Thursday as they warned that a new Missouri law could lead to increases in things such as breast cancer by cutting off funding for mammograms — something abortion provider Planned Parenthood doesn’t offer.  


The myth that Planned Parenthood is necessary for breast cancer prevention is almost a decade old and even fact-checkers that are not exactly conservative-leaning have debunked it. Even the website for the St. Louis Planned Parenthood that Barber was standing in front of says they only offer breast exams, but when it comes to mammograms, all they do is issue referrals.
