Newsrooms must reframe abortion coverage and the worn-out debate around the rules of objectivity

Coverage often fails to capture the complexity of American viewpoints on abortion, and newsroom rules about speech stifle conversation.

Just because journalists choose to be neutral about some things does not mean they have to be neutral in all things.
