Um, WTF Kind Of “Mistake” Is This, ABC? Holy Crap.
Guess What Charleston, SC Just “Formally Apologized” For!
June 20, 2018Bombshell: Susan Rice Ordered NSC Officials To ‘Stand Down’ In Response To ‘Russian Meddling’ Attempts
June 21, 2018This is absolutely unbelievable.
But also so believable.
ABC was covering Trump’s Executive Order last night, when they decided to flash this across the bottom of the screen.
Say what? Manafort has killed 5 people now? This is what we’re doing?
In case there’s any confusion, Paul Manafort hasn’t pleaded guilty to manslaughter, because that’s not even a thing that he’s been charged with.
The message flashed for about 7 seconds, and then ABC apologized.
Statement from @ABC News: We regret and apologize for the false lower third graphic that aired during our special report. We are investigating how incorrect information was in our system and how and why it was allowed to air. (1/2)

(cont.) We apologize to our viewers and to Mr. Manafort. There simply is no excuse for this sort of mistake. (2/2)

Well, yeah – there’s no excuse for it, ABC. But the fact remains, IT HAPPENED. And this is why no one with any sense at all trusts you.
OMG.
