S1E3: How can I separate fact from fiction here?

This week on The Pillar In-Depth, I talk with a longtime journalist and fact-checker about how we can separate fact from fiction when it comes to abortion-related content we see online.

Then, something I’ve seen a lot of in the wake of Dobbs are stories of doctors turning away women seeking care for miscarriages or ectopic pregnancies. I talk with a friend who experienced a miscarriage recently about her own experience, and the questions she has after the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
