Cathy Newman on abortion - "It was my duty to speak out"
Channel 4 news presenter Cathy Newman has told the Nolan Show she feels it was her duty to speak publicly about having an abortion.
A complication in her second pregnancy meant her baby would not have survived to term because of a rare spinal condition.
Cathy said she felt βwomen who have a public profile have a duty to speak out to help other women who donβt have that benefitβ.
