Cathy Ruse takes on the KC Star and the St. Louis Post for their biased reporting about cloning and their defense of Secretary of State, Robin Carnahan’s disastrous and inaccurate ballot summary of the cloning ban.

Wesley Smith does the same, offering some scientific and medical sources which all say SCNT is cloning.

We can’t really expect much in the media, of course. They are typically in the tank for all issues left of center. Although the KC Star, reporter Kit Wagar specifically, is particularly offensive.

Colleen Carroll Campbell dedicated her article this week to Carnahan and her irresponsible ballot language:

Last week, Carnahan had an opportunity to give Missourians another shot at an honest debate about cloning. Instead, she gave voters more of the same.

Presented with an initiative that would close Amendment Two’s loophole — by defining cloning as the creation of a cloned embryo and thus outlawing cloning for both research and reproduction — Carnahan wrote a ballot summary that bore less resemblance to the initiative it summarized than to the press releases of its big biotech critics.

It is certainly a disgrace. We should see something filed by tomorrow from our side challenging the SOS’s language.
