5. Why does the press insist on calling PP "the nation's largest abortion provider"?

That is a total guarantee to get the anti-abortion crowds' dander up. Why not instead refer to them as what they are, "the nation’s largest provider of woman's healthcare services" which includes abortion (less that 3% of the services they provide I believe). It would certainly be way more accurate and to the point, yes?
