As usuual , your complete inability to read and comprehend the written word is mind boggling...no where did I defend Ross...in fact, I never mentioned him.....

What's more amazing is that you will complain about the inability to read and or comprehend the written word.....but yet you screw up your own words......
Or are you going to tell me you misspelled a word, to lure me in....
If you think Faux News, the network with the biggest news media presence isn't mainstream? You think it's some sort resistance network? There's nothing subversive going on there, that's as mainstream as media gets. It's only right across the street from NBC and CNN on 6th ave.
Pssttttttt: It's spelled "Fox". Just thought you'd like to know.
Still waiting for anyone to post evidence that this error, which everyone recognizes was an error, and which the reporter apologized for, was intentional.
Attack me all you want, there is no evidence for your bogus claim.
You're probably right. He was probably drugged or talking in his sleep.
[LEFT]Three hours after reporter Brian Ross attempted to connect a mass killing in Colorado to the Tea Party, ABC News admitted that the story on Good Morning America was "incorrect." The retraction was added to the top of an existing online article about the murders.
The story conceded, "An earlier ABC News broadcast report suggested that a Jim Holmes of a Colorado Tea Party organization might be the suspect, but that report was incorrect." [Update: Ross has now admitted his error on live ABC coverage. See video and more updates below.]

Sued for what....being a jerk. He jumped the gun and then later corrected himself and apologized. If people could sue the media does that mean radio talk could be sued as well. If that was the case then Rush would have been sued multiple times lol

You need to separate the news from editorial/entertainment shows. Rush, Hannity, Olberman, Maddow.... these are not news shows.
Having said that what the solution is I don't know, any goevernment regualtions would be "the cure is worse that the disease" scenario. This type of reporting is unacceptable and Ross needs to be fired immediately. The mainstream news is more about entertainment and that applies to all of them. You have Fox with a conservative slant and the rest of them with a liberal slant. This bias should be unacceptable to everyone no matter what your ideology.

You don't seem to understand something. This is a guy who is supposed to be a professional reporter. He is supposed to be a truth seeker.
What Ross did was not an accident. No apology should be accepted. I wonder how many names he found in the area, yet decided to pick out the one that had Tea Party relations. It was no mistake that he chose that one to take to national tv.
If ABC News wanted to hold on to any integrity it may still have, they would fire Brian Ross by Monday. There is no excuse for than man did.
You can not compare a professional reporter to any opinion guy on the radio.
