I remember years ago there was an show called "The Bold One's" . One particular show (circa 1970) revolved around a woman that had had an illegal abortion, this is prior to Roe V. Wade, due to the fact that she had had too many kids, her husband wouldn't practice any form of birth control and whatever sort of extreme situation could be contrived by the writers. The facts were laid out and she had broken the law but it was a foregone conclusion that she was going to be convicted and sent away even though there was a sense that the jury was sympathetic toward her. But the lawyer had a trick up his sleeve. Jury annulment. Which he, braving contempt of court, brought up and she was found not guilty. Liberal propaganda on TV isn't anything new.
