Curious op-ed in @washingtonpost's @KateCohen92 this morning that ignores 10 years of research on abortion on tv. Yes, there are fewer abortions onscreen than in real life. But they're there, increasingly portrayed by characters of color. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/…
First, to address the obvious, at @ANSIRH, @gesisson & I have documented decades of abortion portrayals on TV and film and put them all in a searchable database. Abortion has been portrayed onscreen for over 100 years. abortiononscreen.org
The more interesting question is *how* is abortion portrayed on tv/film, compared to real life abortion experiences. Just saying, "there are no abortions on tv!" is inaccurate and misleading. There are -- they just don't reflect the reality of most abortion patients in the US.
