SUMMARY: The Los Angeles Times suggested that then-Pennsylvania governor Robert Casey was denied a speaking role at the 1992 Democratic convention because he opposed abortion rights. In fact, other Democrats who opposed abortion rights spoke at the 1992 convention and at every convention since then, so Casey's opposition to abortion rights could not have been the sole reason he was not given a speaking role.
