Pro-Choice activists declare that it is their women’s rights to do what they want with their body. But one thing they are not seeing is what choice does the child living inside of them have? Even if you do not believe abortion is murder, it still demeans the value of human life.

Many women across the country do not even know how an abortion is processed.…

Their use of framing, however, did not benefit Fiorina, as she was only mentioned for her false Planned Parenthood claims (John, 2015). The Twitter content was primarily opinion based.
