Anti-abortion activists, Christians for Truth, say that they are considering further action against the Durban newspaper, The Mercury, for refusing to place their adverts. This could include taking the issue to the press ombudsman or other relevant agencies, they say. Editor David Canning, however, says that it was "not a question of censorship" and that in principal the newspaper had nothing against running pro-life advertisements. However, the language of the advertisements must be "in good taste, reasoned and temperate".
