It seems someone at the ABC went out of their way not to associate this criminal activity with the Abortion Industry - ditto for the ABC's radio news as well. Abortion isn't mentioned in the story or the articles tags.
From ABC News - 27th May 2011
Police have charged a doctor as part of an investigation into a hepatitis C outbreak at a Melbourne medical clinic.
Forty-nine women were infected after being treated at the Croydon Day Surgery in 2008 and 2009.
All of the woman have the same strain of hepatitis C as their anaesthetist, Dr James Latham Peters.
The 61-year-old Hawthorn man is facing 162 charges, including 54 counts each of conduct endangering life and negligently and recklessly causing serious injury.
Peters appeared relaxed in the dock of the Melbourne Magistrates' Court during a brief court appearance.
He was released on bail on strict conditions and had to provide a $200,000 surety.
He will return to court in August.

Pro-life mum faces threat of jail
The Catholic Leader
Published: 15 May 2011
By: Paul Dobbyn
A CATHOLIC mother of seven, who recently received an eight-month suspended jail sentence for taking part in a protest vigil outside a Brisbane abortion clinic, has asked for prayers as she considers her future.
Anne Rampa, of Dayboro, north-west of Brisbane, was arrested with Annerley father of six Graham Preston, outside a Greenslopes abortion clinic on February 18.
Once charged, Ms Rampa accepted bail on condition of not returning to the abortion clinic until after her court case had been heard.
Mr Preston refused to accept the condition and had already served 70 days in jail on remand when he appeared in court.
Ms Rampa and Mr Preston represented themselves in Brisbane Magistrates Court on April 28.
Both belong to the group Protect Life and have often protested outside abortion clinics since the group's formation in 2002.

Tim Minchin - !@%# his Pope Song
Comedian Tim Minchin will be in Brisbane in March. Like many comedians he's sometimes funny and sometimes a complete tosser. Minchin's "Pope Song" shows just how ugly the comedian can be. The "Pope Song" is a completely unwarranted attack on Pope Benedict XVI filled with one lie after another. Given Tim Minchin declares himself a fan of Richard Dawkins one shouldn't be surprised at his difficulty with facts.
Tim Minchin's "Pope Song" with a running commentary can be seen below.
Click the "YouTube" or expansion button for a better view. Warning - much swearing.
Of course there is no credible evidence that the Pope is guilty of anything Minchin accuses him of. So why write the song, if not to give expression to his own bigoted anti-Catholic feelings.

A victory for truth: the life of Bernard Nathanson
An unlikely hero of human dignity died this week, a doctor who once performed thousands of abortions.
Carolyn Moynihan | Thursday, 24 February 2011. MercatorNet.com
Defections from the pro-abortion side, however, have been much more significant, not to mention heroic. Norma McCorvey, the “Jane Roe” plaintiff of the 1973 Supreme Court case which issued in the legalising of abortion throughout the US, became a high profile opponent of abortion and eventually petitioned the Supreme Court to overturn its Roe v Wade decision. Many others have followed her in the public renunciation of the killing of unborn children, most recently Abby Johnson, a young Planned Parenthood clinic operator from Texas, whose story was published last month.
But no convert to the pro-life cause comes near in prominence or influence to Dr Bernard Nathanson, one of the original abortion rights campaigners, who died on Monday at the age of 84. Dr Nathanson, did as much as anyone to launch abortion as a regular means of birth control, but for that very reason he also did more to discredit it once he faced the truth about this “procedure” and began to write and speak against it.

Government Enabled Killings both in Pennsylvania and Victoria (and Queensland?).
From Pennsylvania an example of the evil that can be allowed to happen when the "Pro-Choice" mentality of abortion on demand is lived out:
The Grand Jury Findings into the activities of Dr Grosnell need to be read just to appreciate inevitable point one reaches when one follows the "Pro-Choice" mentality of abortion on demand.
In Victoria things wouldn't be much better for the unborn if "Pro-Choicers" got their way. From Andrew Bolt in 2007:
I thought killing baby Jessica with an injection into her beating heart was so wrong that good people would cry, “enough”.
Surely we’d make sure such a cruelty could never happen again?
Wrong. Instead, Labor MP Candy Broad last week put up a private member’s Bill that her supporters boast will let doctors kill children just like Jessica without any risk of prosecution.
Indeed, this is the only solid reason any of them give for backing it.
And more from Andrew Bolt on the same case of killing baby Jessica.

Christian anthropology versus the Sexual Revolution
PETER KREEFT
How does Christ revolutionize the Sexual Revolution? Not by turning back the clock, not by a new Victorianism, not by opposing religion to sex, but by showing their real and profound connection.
To see that the Sexual Revolution has been radical in thought as well as behavior, just look at the revolution in language. When people use the word "morality" today they almost always mean sexual morality. That's a remarkable new development, an astonishing narrowing; it's as if we started to use the word "state" to mean only Russia, or the word "technology" to mean only "computers". The reason for the new development is obvious from my two comparisons: sex, Russia, and computers are where there have been the most radical revolutions.
No one speaks of a revolution in any other area of morality. No one speaks of the Property Revolution or the Bearing False Witness Revolution. In fact the rest of the natural moral law is pretty much still in place. Almost no one defends terrorism, sadism, cannibalism, insider trading, nuclear war, environmental pollution, rape, hypocrisy, torture, or murder. We are still "judgmental" about those things. But if it has anything to do with sex we dare no longer be "judgmental".

Not Abortion but Foeticide?
True to form the ABC refuses to associate abortion with anything negative. So the abortion of unwanted unborn females in India (which is a bad thing) is not abortion but foeticide.
So did this couple who aborted their unborn twin sons because they were the "wrong sex" commit abortion or foeticide?
