Carly Fiorina attacked the Fox News undercard debate moderators for questioning GOP presidential rival Rick Santorum over his pro-life chops because he skipped the recent March for Life Rally in Washington.

{mosads}”We’ve been talking tonight about a lot of issues, and we’ve also been talking about the fact that the game is rigged and the media has a lot to do with that,” she said to Fox News anchor Martha MacCallum during Thursday’s undercard debate.

“Frankly, it is outrageous that Fox News and you would question the pro-life credentials of Rick Santorum.”

MacCallum had asked Santorum why he didn’t join last week’s March for Life Rally, which Fiorina attended despite the fact that a historic snowstorm started the same day of the event.

Santorum defended himself by noting that he had been to the event for years and that he had helped to push a number of pro-life bills in Congress. He added that he practiced those beliefs in his family’s decision for his wife to not have an abortion on two separate occasions when doctors recommended that path.
