U.S. birth rates rise, media finds negative story

In a time when much of the western world is failing to maintain a birth rate that outpaces it's death rate, birth rates in the U.S. are up. And that's good. But you'd never know it by reading the newspapers.

"Birth rates are up in the United States, and most are saying that's a good thing. But Associated Press began its reporting of the highest U.S. birth rate in 45 years with a negative spin -- describing Americans as "bucking the trend in many other wealthy industrialized nations." However, Carrie Gordon Earll of Focus on the Family has a different take."
