Shit, we don't let fucking Christers get away with lapses like that around here . . . .
Quote:ABC News announced Saturday that Chief Investigative Correspondent Brian Ross had been suspended for four weeks without pay over a botched "exclusive" about former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
Ross' suspension is effective immediately. ABC News spokeswoman Heather Riley would not comment on whether anyone else had been suspended in connection with the error.
During a live "special report" Friday morning, Ross reported that Flynn would testify that Donald Trump had ordered him to make contact with Russians about foreign policy while Trump was still a candidate. The report raised the specter of Trump's impeachment and sent the stock market plummeting.
Later in the day, ABC News -- part of the reliably liberal Disney ABC Television Network -- issued a "clarification" to Ross's report, saying that Trump's alleged directive came after he'd been elected president. That's a key distinction in any investigation of Russian actions during the campaign. Ross himself appeared on "World News Tonight" several hours after the initial report to clarify his error.
In a statement, ABC News said Ross' report "had not been fully vetted through our editorial standards process."

45 wouldn't have made so many tweets about Flynn if there was nothing there.
Funny though, how the so called "fake news" media fires and suspends people at a far faster rate than the bullshit rag you just linked to. It's quality control, something Fucks News wouldn't know shit about.
Investigation isn't over because of this story.
