Mueller Forced To Fire Top Aide After He Confirms 'Witch Hunt' W/Anti-Trump Texts

[depotoo]

News reporters are usually given their stories by someone, which should be checked for authenticity before being aired. He has done this before.

In 2001, Ross incorrectly reported that Saddam Hussein's Iraqi dictatorship may have been responsible for anthrax attacks that terrorized the United States in the months after 9/11. Then-White House press secretary Ari Fleischer tweeted Saturday that he "explicitly told ABC News not to go with the anthrax story because it was wrong.

ABC was told not to use the story, but they did and it was not true.
Other incidences-

In 2006, Ross reported that then-House Speaker Dennis Hastert was a target of a federal corruption probe involving former lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Despite the Justice Department's denial, Ross insisted that Hastert was "very much in the mix" of the investigation. Hastert was never approached by prosecutors.

In 2010, Ross fronted a report called "Taking on Toyota," which claimed that some of the Japanese automaker's cars contained a defect that caused "unintended acceleration." The report included footage of a tachometer shooting from 1,000 to 6,200 RPM in seconds while Ross sat behind the wheel. However, the same footage showed that the car Ross was sitting in was parked with the doors open at the time.

In a letter to ABC News at the time, Toyota complained that the work by a key expert Ross cited in his report was funded by "a paid advocate for trial lawyers involved in litigation against Toyota." The carmaker added that the expert's demonstrations were carried out "under conditions that are virtually impossible to occur in real-world conditions."

Perhaps most infamously, Ross reported in 2012 that Colorado movie theater shooter James Holmes may have had ties to the Tea Party movement.

"There is a Jim Holmes of Aurora, Colorado page on the Colorado Tea Party site as well, talking about him joining the tea party last year," Ross reported on "Good Morning America." "Now, we don’t know if this is the same Jim Holmes – but this is Jim Holmes of Aurora, Colorado."
ABC News suspends Brian Ross over 'serious error' in Flynn report

Makes you wonder what he was getting under the table...
He is a gossip columnist by his actions, not a reporter.

He has a history, yet ABC never reined him in. It was their responsibility to do so, as his employer, or to get rid of him. They did neither.

So, he is given free reign with what he says on air? Who handed him the story?

If Abc had done the right thing, the story would have never gone to print/press to begin with.

ABC did the right thing?

It was the f*ing fake news media that attempted to help Mueller by pushing his BS propaganda!

ABC was FORCED to publicly sacrifice Ross (scapegoat / sacrificial lamb) after getting busted in an attempt to save itself ... just like Mueller was FORCED to fire his top aid after getting busted exposing their investigation as a butt-hurt political witch hunt in an attempt to save himself and his witch hunt.

They were forced? Yeah they were forced to do something because the guy said the wrong things. It's called doing the right thing.

If your son breaks your neighbor's window and you punish them for it, were you forced to do so? Or did you just do the right thing?

He said it on live tv... it wasn't written in a news paper where editors could check it.

He's a reporter... no one handed him the story. Don't you think you should read about what happened before you start throwing out posts about it?

ABC 'Nothingburger Bombshell' Sends Top Mueller Counsel Aid Over The Edge...

Mueller Forced To Fire Him For Anti-Trump Texts after 'Flynn Bombshell' Blows up in their Faces...

Mueller Removed Top Agent in Russia Inquiry Over Possible Anti-Trump Texts

'WASHINGTON — The special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, removed a top F.B.I. agent this summer from his investigation into Russian election meddling after the Justice Department’s inspector general began examining whether the agent had sent text messages that expressed anti-Trump political views, according to three people briefed on the matter.

The agent, Peter Strzok, is considered one of the most experienced and trusted F.B.I. counterintelligence investigators. He helped lead the investigation into whether Hillary Clinton had mishandled classified information on her private email account, and then played a major role in the investigation into links between President Trump’s campaign and Russia.

But Mr. Strzok was reassigned this summer from Mr. Mueller’s investigation to the F.B.I.’s human resources department, where he has been stationed since. The people briefed on the case said the transfer followed the discovery of text messages in which Mr. Strzok and a colleague reacted to news events, like presidential debates, in ways that could appear critical of Mr. Trump.


Surprise, surprise ... the 'most trusted FBI agent' that worked on helping Comey exonerate Hillary of her crimes is now working for Mueller on his stacked 'Take Down Trump' team ... and just got fired for publicly 'outing' the team by sending Anti-Trump Texts!

The 'Flynn' ploy was an epic fail, blowing up in their faces...his team is becoming frustrated and unravelling...his top aid just exposed the team's anti-Trump bias.

Time to shut this witch hunt down and call in the Special Counsel to investigate Mueller...

Anything But Correct News' article wasn't just a nothing burger, it was fake... fraud news network.

And Ross had run with such dirt numerous times before. More a gossip columnist than a reporter, and abc allowed it.

Yes, I've been saying that for many months and am 100% correct so far. Morons like you will continue to say; "Just wait" and not have to think. Reality always ends up bitch slapping you idiots. It'll be fun to watch, again.

[depotoo]

My entire point. No vetting was done, by him, or otherwise. Why is that so hard for you to understand? Unless you claim he had on an ear piece, was told it, then reported it. But, who didn’t vet it before they gave it to him? Either way, he and someone else failed to vet it, before he ran with it. And in the past he ran with stories, even after being vetted and told not to use them.

Trump has been caught lying several times and you support him. But look at the position you take on this guy. You support Trump to be President, and you want this guy fired. Do you see the issue here?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

It doesn't matter if he leans left or not as long as he reports the truth. He didn't this time and got punished for it. By your same standards everyone on Fox News who Trump jerks off to every day, should be fired except Shepherd Smith.

Actually it matters a great deal. Selective reporting of the truth, spin, constant presenting of opinion along side of fact, ect ect ect, is causing more damage to the nation than the out right lies.

So, tell us where you get your news and information that does not lie or spin the facts.

Interesting tactic there. Could you show where I claimed such a thing?

And while you are at it, could you admit what your goal was with that move on your part?

Was just genuinely curious. Since you seem to think that the current biased reporting is so very bad, I thought maybe you had found a source that was not biased.

My goal was to see where it was your get your news and information.

I check on multiple sources on any issues that come to my attention, while keeping in mind the source and it's agenda.


That answered, do you have anything to say about my point, ie that the media's complete corruption has done harm to our nation?

The media is what it is because we have allowed it and even encouraged it to become this way. It is much like our politicians, we are getting what we deserve.

Instead of holding those in the media accountable we instead rabidly encourage and support new sources that are even more biased than the old, they are just biased in whatever direction the person leans. So, it has become a war to the bottom, who can be the most biased and tell the most lies to their readers all the while having those same readers sing their praise.

Trump has been caught lying several times and you support him. But look at the position you take on this guy. You support Trump to be President, and you want this guy fired. Do you see the issue here?

Uh no. At any time have you heard me say he didn't deserve his punishment?

What I'm asking is why you think one liar deserves to be President of the United States, while another should lose his job.

I didn’t vote for Trump. I’ve said it before.
And this is about who we traditionally in this country, reporters, have looked to for giving us factual news, not gossip. My question to you, seeing as he hasn’t been punished for his prior transgressions, do you think that has anything to do with his continued utterances?

Are you related to Brian Ross or someone at ABC, or maybe you are another ‘reporter’ that will fly with anything.

Matters not. ABC knew he had done it in the past, and to allow him free rein after, something is wrong. Or he needs to not just be suspended but fired, as he had purposely done it in the past. They control their employees, not the other way around.

My entire point. No vetting was done, by him, or otherwise. Why is that so hard for you to understand? Unless you claim he had on an ear piece, was told it, then reported it. But, who didn’t vet it before they gave it to him? Either way, he and someone else failed to vet it, before he ran with it. And in the past he ran with stories, even after being vetted and told not to use them.

And he got punished for it. He was LIVE ON AIR... he was able to say whatever he wanted... the news station had no idea he was going to say what he did. IT WAS LIVE TV.

Do you understand what LIVE TV is? I just showed you examples of what can happen on LIVE TV.

We've got Trump right where we want him now! In the Whitehouse.

Actually it matters a great deal. Selective reporting of the truth, spin, constant presenting of opinion along side of fact, ect ect ect, is causing more damage to the nation than the out right lies.

So, tell us where you get your news and information that does not lie or spin the facts.

Interesting tactic there. Could you show where I claimed such a thing?

And while you are at it, could you admit what your goal was with that move on your part?

Was just genuinely curious. Since you seem to think that the current biased reporting is so very bad, I thought maybe you had found a source that was not biased.

My goal was to see where it was your get your news and information.

I check on multiple sources on any issues that come to my attention, while keeping in mind the source and it's agenda.


That answered, do you have anything to say about my point, ie that the media's complete corruption has done harm to our nation?

The media is what it is because we have allowed it and even encouraged it to become this way. It is much like our politicians, we are getting what we deserve.

Instead of holding those in the media accountable we instead rabidly encourage and support new sources that are even more biased than the old, they are just biased in whatever direction the person leans. So, it has become a war to the bottom, who can be the most biased and tell the most lies to their readers all the while having those same readers sing their praise.

I have no interest in excusing their responsibility for their actions.


They are biased assholes, the job they are doing is doing active harm to our nation, and we should never trust a single thing they say, and hold them in absolute contempt.


FOR STARTERS.


Someone mentioned revoked a FCC license. That sounds like an idea worth looking into.

How do you know he wasn't punished for his prior transgressions? Do you think every time someone is punished by their boss it is reported on?

You only said you look at various sources to figure out the truth in reporting but you didn't say what those sources were. So are you going to answer that question or continue to dodge it?
