Here’s what we were reading last week:
You may or may not know, but PPNYC launched its “We’re Going to the Principal’s Office” campaign last week! More on that later, but first I wanted to share some of the great media it’s been getting:
- The Staten Island Advance has a great piece on Sex Education in New York City that ran today.
- NYC’s NPR station WNYC had a great piece on sex ed in New York City on the morning news and on their blog.
- WCBS 880 had a live interview with Dana Czuczka on Wednesday afternoon, an mp3 of which we’ll be posting shortly.
- WNBC News 4 ran a story about sex education on both their 6pm nightly news and on their daily news blog.
- New York 1 News ran a news segment about sex education in NYC.
- Elizabeth Benjamin covered PPNYC’s sex ed campaign on her NY Daily News Daily Politics blog.
- Blogs Gotham Schools, Bay Ridge Journal, and Fractals all wrote about sex ed in NYC and about PPNYC’s sex ed campaign.
- The New York Times had a great editorial clearly laying out why the abortion language in health care reform is a reasonable compromise that seeks to defuse the issue, and why further restrictions would roll back benefits women currently have.
- The New York Times also reported on the Senate Finance Committee rejecting two anti-choice amendments.
- The LA Times covered Personhood USA’s push to outlaw abortion through personhood initiatives.
- Politico covered a new Pew poll on abortion.
- Lisa Belkin’s blog, the Motherloade, has an interesting story of a young reader who’s decided to carry an unintended pregnancy to term, and her experience with a Crisis Pregnancy Center.
- Feministing has a great piece on the Lake-Powell area woman who was forced to have a C-section.
That’s all we’ve got. Tell us, what did you read?
