NRCC regional press secretary Carly Atchison reached out to Moira Crowley, assistant editor — and “specialty cheese editor” — at something called the Cheese Reporter, to inquire about Democratic Rep. Ron Kind’s position on infants born alive after surviving botched abortions.

Here’s the response Atchison received:

I wrote a release advocating for legislation protecting babies surviving a botched abortion. This is how one associate editor chose to respond: pic.twitter.com/ALKbMMldkQ — Carly Atchison (@CarlyAtch) April 2, 2019

Apparently Moira missed the memo that it’s possible to disagree with the pro-life position or pro-life legislation without slithering into the gutter.

Ummmm, that’s disturbing to say the least. Imagine the amount of hate you must have in your heart to not only type that, but to actually hit send — durtee (@durteethoughts) April 2, 2019

We’re not entirely sure what sort of role the Cheese Reporter has in Wisconsin politics, but it seems like it’s at least safe to say that their assistant editor might have an anger management problem.

This is rather aggressive from an outlet that largely covers actual news about cheese. Wow. https://t.co/CEPqOyVDo8 — Emily Zanotti (@emzanotti) April 2, 2019

I think that’s the only fact that makes this kinda funny in my opinion. You write about CHEESE for a living. Chill out. — My Garbage Takes ? (@MyGarbageTakes) April 2, 2019

For those unfamiliar, the Cheese Reporter covers the dairy industry in Wisconsin, which is a political force in the Cheese State, but their masthead isn't joking. They literally report on cheese. I did not anticipate they would have a strong editorial opinion on abortion. https://t.co/vyHYasL51I — Emily Zanotti (@emzanotti) April 2, 2019
