BRZEZINSKI: “Wow.”

SCARBOROUGH: “You know, I -- I got to say of all the areas where I think there's media bias, I think the greatest area is on this issue. I think most reporters do the best job they can do and they try to be as fair as possible. But when it come to the issue of abortion, there is the greatest built-in bias. And it is completely cultural bias. It is unintended. But if the roles were reversed, we do this all the time, but it's true. And there is a group on the right doing what Planned Parenthood has done on the left –“

BRZEZINSKI: “Oh, Lord –“

SCARBOROUGH: “-- and is described on the left, there would be Justice Department -- there would be indictments already going down. Hillary Clinton said it. Anybody that's looked at these videos, Michael Steele, will say it. Even if you're pro-choice –“

STEELE: “Oh, it's horrendous.”

SCARBOROUGH: “What Planned Parenthood officials, top officials, describe is absolutely horrendous.”
