The California pay-for-eggs legislation
yesterday picked up some mainstream media coverage, including a
two-minute, 24-second segment on two major television stations in Los
Angeles and San Francisco.<\/div>
<\/div>
The piece stands out because the
mainstream media has largely ignored the bill, with a couple of
exceptions. The piece is also exceptional because it appeared on TV
news, which reaches many more people than print media.<\/div>
<\/div>
Nannette Miranda<\/b>, Sacramento bureau
chief for KABC-TV<\/b> in Los
Angeles, KGTV<\/b> in
San Diego, KGO-TV<\/b> in San
Francisco and KFSN-TV<\/b> in Fresno, prepared the segment, which included on-camera interviews with both
supporters and opponents. The video appeared on KGO and KABC
and may well appear later on the other stations. It can be seen at
the end of this item.<\/div>
<\/div>
The legislation, AB926<\/b> by Susan
Bonilla<\/b>, D-Concord, would remove the ban in California on paying
women for their eggs for stem cell and other scientific research.
Women can already be paid for their eggs for fertility purposes.<\/div>
<\/div>
Another piece on the bill appeared in
another mainstream media outlet this morning, the San Diego U-T<\/b>.
Writing in an op-ed column, Leah Campbell <\/b>said she sold her eggs at
age 25 and has since become infertile as the result of problems her
doctors believe involved the process of providing the eggs.<\/div>

“Six months (after providing the
eggs) my body began to fail me. I had always been a healthy and
active woman, but suddenly I was crippled by pain and unable to live
the life I had once enjoyed. I was soon diagnosed with stage IV
endometriosis, a disease my doctors now believe was pushed into
overdrive as a result of the potent hormones involved in my egg
donation protocols.”<\/p><\/blockquote>

Campbell continued,<\/div>

“AB 926 may open the doors for
increased fertility research, but the potential costs for women’s
lives and health far outweigh any compensation that could ever be
offered.”<\/p><\/blockquote>
