ABC News president James Goldston excoriated staff Monday over Brian Ross’ major error on a report about former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, and announced that Ross, the network’s chief investigative reporter, will no longer cover stories related to President Trump.

Good…Maybe he should run all the other news departments at the Lame Stream media Networks…
Before vilifying mainstream media, the others did not share the report. They said they are aware of what ABC was claiming, and said that it was not verified and they would not repeat it. They did their jobs. On the other hand, your favorite fake news outlet, Fox News, had anchors continually say there was no guarantee Flynn would be pleading guilty even though field reporters disagreed and said point blank that is not what the court papers say. They also kept pivoting to make it sound like this was about Sec. Clinton (Trump’s favorite obsession in fits of rage) even though it has everything to do with Trump and his associates during the campaign, transition and administration, and absolutely nothing to with Clinton. Before making names and casting blame at other news outlets, you should take a long hard look at Fox, which becomes more a Trump PR agency than a news outlet, and despite making many false accusations over the years, has never apologized or suspended “journalists” as ABC did. And shall we discuss Fox’s inaction and coverups when it comes to sexual harassment in the workplace??????
Someone needs to get rid of that hag “Maude” Behar on the View..Just a dolt leftie!!!!
MSM believes they need to act on these issues now after all the press with NBC. This type of reporting has been going on for some time now at ABC and the other MSM but now with all the scrutiny ABC attempts to make a statement that they must get the stories right and maintain the trust they have with the viewer. If you cannot trust Brian Ross to report honest and accurate news reports on the President of the United States how can the viewer trust him with any report? I look forward to the next investigative report from Mr. Ross….
Never trusted him in the first place. He’s one of “them”…(MSM)
More cred than the actors on Fox News, who consistently bend the facts, if even covering them at all, and are quick to promote conspiracy theories. Too bad you don’t try to use your brain to separate fact from fiction.
Faux News viewers don’t expect – or want – the truth. They want to be told exactly what they WANT to hear…and it happens every day.
What else do you expect from RidgelineTV??
