REPORTER: "Has the -- I know you said these videos are selectively edited, the Planned Parenthood stuff. There are several more that are slated to come out, I understand. Has the White House had any communication with Planned Parenthood about standardizing procedures for fetal tissue research? Has the White House had any concerns about illegalities in this realm? Have you had any scope of investigation, or are you considering it?”
EARNEST: “Not that I’m aware of. And again, I think Planned Parenthood has been quite specific about the policies and procedures that they have in place. I know that they have described those policies and procedures as the -- as living up to the highest ethical standard. But for what those standards are, I’d refer you to Planned Parenthood. And as I mentioned, based on the essentially fraudulent way in which these videos have been released, there’s not a lot of evidence right now that Planned Parenthood hasn’t lived up to those standards. But again, I’d refer you to Planned Parenthood on all that.”
