The Story the Main Stream Media Refuses to Cover

Thine Eyes: A Witness to the March or Life came about after Steve Sanborn saw how the main stream media was refusing to cover the 2008 March for Life in Washington DC as it should. The little coverage it did get was clearly so slanted in favor of the pro-aborts who were in DC to counter protest. So he decided to do this documentary to counter that bias & get the truth out. To do so he approached documentary film producer Jack Cashill. They decided to film the journeys of 3 groups to the 2009 March as well as the event. They decided that 1 of the groups should be a college group. Since Sanborn had contacts at Notre Dame University they decided to go with them 1st. But as the Jan. 22 date approached, Sanborn started getting mixed signals out of Notre Dame. As Cashil says in How Notre Dame thwarted pro-life film: " The administration was proving as unhelpful as his contacts had been helpful."

When Cashill asked "whether the resistance was just routine boilerplate or active obstruction" Sanborn told him it was obstuction. "As far as he could tell, the Notre Dame administration did not want our camera on the bus.

The reason seemed clear enough even then: The university had no interest in seeing its name publicly associated with something as unblushingly Christian as the March For Life."

Cashill thinks that Notre Dame was more concerned about offending Obama & having him turn down the invite to speak. He feels that "from Notre Dame's perspective, an Obama turndown would have smarted even more than the football team's 15 losses in just the last two seasons." (IMHO this is just 1 more proof that Notre Dame has betrayed its Catholic roots.)

But Cashill was able to find another college that "takes its role as a Catholic college seriously." That college was Benedictine College in Atchison, Kan. When contacted Steve Minnis, Benedictine president, was only too happy to oblige. The result is the documentary Thine Eyes.

The documentary was run on EWTN Saturday morning & I got to see a part of it. It was very well done & is a MUST SEE in my opinion.

Here is the 1st part of that documentary:
