  • Deception (30%)
    The article contains selective reporting by only mentioning the lack of exceptions for rape and incest in the Arizona law without providing context about other potential exceptions or limitations. It also uses emotional manipulation by implying that women's lives will be 'devastatingly affected' if the ban takes effect.
    • The ruling puts the issue of abortion access front and center in a state key to this year’s elections to decide the presidency and partisan control of the U.S. Senate. Democrats immediately pounced, blaming former President Donald Trump for the loss of abortion access because he appointed the justices who formed the majority that ended the national right to abortion.
    • But GOP lawmakers shut down an effort to force a vote on such a measure Wednesday. A near-total ban could drastically reduce abortions in Arizona, from about 1,100 monthly as estimated by a survey for the Society of Family Planning. And voters could get a say in November. Abortion rights advocates said they already have more than enough signatures to add a ballot question asking voters to approve a constitutional amendment protecting the right to abortion until viability.
