Hey, this is Alahe.

And when I'm not filling in on post reports, I'm actually a media reporter here at the post.

And so after the draft decision that would overturn Roe versus Wade was leaked Monday

night, I started to think a lot about how media has been covering abortion.

And I wanted to talk to Margaret.

Margaret Sullivan is a media columnist at the post who provides her perspectives, sometimes

her opinions about that very thing about how we as journalists cover these thorny issues.

Well I started thinking about a particular OBGYN in the Buffalo area who actually had

delivered my first child.

This is 30 years ago, roughly.

And this doctor was just filling in for my regular OBGYN.

So I didn't know him.

His name is Shalom Press.

And you know, the delivery went smoothly as these things can go.

And I say that from a distance of three decades, it seems smooth now.

The doctor Shalom Press ended up being very much in the news.

And because I was a journalist in Buffalo and an editor eventually.

And I was thinking about him.

And I was also thinking about his son.

My name is Al Press.

I'm a journalist based in New York.

I contribute to the New Yorker, New York Times, and other publications.
