White House spokesman Josh Earnest was asked again whether he or anyone in the White House had seen the undercover Planned Parenthood videos. Earnest said he had not, and that he had only seen the snippets that were broadcasted on television through news coverage.
The first undercover video released from the Center for Medical Progress was released July 14, and the organization has since released eight undercover videos that have shown high ranking Planned Parenthood discussing prices and practices of sending aborted fetal body parts to labs that had purchased them.
All of the videos are graphic and showed Planned Parenthood doctors and officials talking casually about the practices.
Democratic members of Congress as well as the White House have continually said that the videos were highly edited and ignored that the Center for Medical Progress has released full, unedited videos.
During the press briefing Earnest said he had had not done his own analysis of the videos and left that up to Planned Parenthood.
