Liberal websites now citing other liberal websites as proof Carly Fiorina made up graphic abortion video

As Twitchy has reported, liberals are circling the wagons to protect Planned Parenthood after GOP candidate Carly Fiorina dared Hillary Clinton and President Obama before a television audience of 23 million to watch the videos exposing fetal organ harvesting at the tax-supported organization.

Amanda Marcotte wrote in Slate that the events Fiorina described in her “grisly abortion rant” “only happened in her head.” MSNBC’s Irin Carmon, who last year was presented a “Maggie Award” from Planned Parenthood for her reporting, argued that “we actually don’t know what [the video] depicts” and then added, “Fiorina’s statement is clearly inaccurate.”

And then there’s Vox’s Sarah Kliff, who as a reporter for the Washington Post didn’t think it was necessary to cover Kermit Gosnell’s house of horrors because it fell under “local crime,” is pretty sure that Fiorina’s Planned Parenthood rant is based on lies. Why? Because she watched “all 12 hours of footage,” apparently unaware that more than 16 hours had been released at the time.

What’s next? The liberal website Talking Points Memo has released its hit piece on Fiorina, claiming that her graphic description was “pure fiction.”

So TPM’s source for their claim is Vox’s Kliff, who apparently missed several hours worth of the Planned Parenthood videos.

TPM – Person who doesn't work for us saw videos that we won't show you and says they're false, so we're running with that. @joshtpm
