I personally believe the media will use the retract to avoid being held accountable for blatant lies. They have an agenda and will use every tool they can.
What ever happened to responsible journalism? Journalist report the news not create it. We have v very little good journalism any more.

The bigger question is, what ever happened to honesty from our President ? You seem to accept the fact that your guy lies, lies, and then lies to cover up those lies, and it is like water off of a ducks back. None of you will ever admit or believe that Trump does not lie constantly.

That is why your side has no credibility with us whatsoever..........NONE.

ABC Retracts Reporting That Paul Manafort Pleaded Guilty To Manslaughter | The Daily Caller

Just five fake murders get you to this point?

I reckon you should be flaming mad about the right-wing fake news claiming Hillary killed over 20 people then, right?

That's absolutely correct. After all the poster boy for fake news is Fox news. They actually went to court in Florida to protect their right, under the first amendment, to lie to and mis-lead their viewers.


Murdoch pulled Fox News in the UK because it only had viewing figures of around two thousand. That was a shame because in journalism classes in the UK Fox news was used as a perfect example of a propaganda mouthpiece for the GOP, and a classic example of a news outlet that was anything but fair & balanced.

Why don't you watch Fox News for a week and spot the difference? You never watch so how would you know? It's not scary, I promise. You will probably wind up only watching Fox from then on like most people.

" there was research done a while back"


Wheres is the "research"?


Who did it?


Who pad for it?


I know, details, details, details.

To think ABC is owned by the House of Mouse, a company that has this image of being honest and family-friendly.
