TIME Issues Much-Needed Apology
Well done feminists!
After countless letters, phone calls and pressure to recant an obviously questionable error, TIME magazine issued the following correction after being called out for identifying emergency contraception as an abortifacient.
The original version of this story inaccurately described morning-after pills being distributed free by Chilean President Michelle Bachelet as "abortion-inducing." Though pro-life advocates claim the pills effect a kind of abortion by preventing a fertilized egg from implanting in the uterus in the first 72 hours after unprotected sex, the pills are more accurately considered an emergency contraception by the medical community since they technically prevent a pregnancy from occurring in the first place.
Yo.
