Congratulations to The Hill on the purchase of a new thesaurus

Earlier today we told you how The Hill framed the story of Alabama State Rep. John Rogers (D) saying that “Some kids are unwanted, so you kill them now or you kill them later” as one where “Conservatives Pounce” on his statement rather than the vileness of said statement. ICYMI, here’s that headline:

Well, The Hill changed it. The URL is still the same, but now the article reads “Conservatives seize”:

The Hill has a third version they’re using in tweets: “Conservatives rail”:

Conservatives rail against Dem state lawmaker who said "some kids are unwanted, so you kill them” https://t.co/80A1fPp5eo pic.twitter.com/b7toFV6iMs

Way to put the thesaurus to use, guys. But you missed the point. Even the most pro-choice people out there should be pouncing/seizing/railing on Rogers’ statement, not just conservatives.
