PLANNED PARENTHOOD

In 2015, Planned Parenthood commissioned Fusion GPS to generate a report that would undermine a series of undercover videotapes created by the pro-life organization Center for Medical Progress that purported to show officials working for Planned Parenthood selling fetal tissue and organs to researchers.[40] (Such sales would be illegal if made for profit.[41])

In turn, according to Politico, Fusion GPS’ report argued that the videotapes contained deceptive edits, were inaccurately transcribed, and were missing footage.[42]Fusion GPS’ report also concluded that there was no “widespread evidence of substantive video manipulation” and that it was “impossible to characterize the extent to which the edits and cuts distort the meaning of the conversations depicted.” [43]

The report argued that the videos lacked journalistic credibility, had no legal “evidentiary value,” and could not be used in “official inquiries.” [44]

A Weekly Standard commentator criticized Politico’s assessment of the Fusion GPS report for failing to call attention to the fact that Fusion GPS is “an opposition research firm with ties to the Democratic Party and has a history of harassing socially conservative Republican donors.”[45]
