Warning

Dark Satire

Dear Sir  

On 1st October the *NZ Herald* ran this headline

## Two unborn babies die after mothers catch measles.

  
Identifying foetuses as babies is a vile, sexist attack on women. It is not for the old white male editor of a newspaper to decide if a foetus is a baby, it is the woman with the foetus who decides.

A foetus becomes a baby if and when the woman decides it is a baby. That decision will never be made by the editor of a rag like the New Zealand Herald.

One can only hope that the Herald will soon have a female editor, someone with enough brains to acknowledge and respect a woman’s right to either kill a foetus or have a baby.  

Yours faithfully  

Outraged
