Anonymous Coward User ID: 19228212 United States 07/20/2012 12:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ABC NEWS Apologizes For 'Incorrect' Report That Shooter Was A TEA PARTY Member! FROM POLITICO:
ABC News and Brian Ross are apologizing for an "incorrect" report that James Holmes, the suspect in the Colorado theater shooting, may have had connections to the Tea Party.
"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," ABC News said in a statement. "ABC News and Brian Ross apologize for the mistake, and for disseminating that information before it was properly vetted."
In a similar statement released minutes earlier, ABC News said the report was "incorrect" but, rather than apologize, wrote: "Several other local residents with similar names were also contacted via social media by members of the public who mistook them for the suspect." The statement appeared at first to be an attempt byt the network to abdicate responsibility for the report.
I hope James Holmes and the Tea Party site sue the hell out of ABC... |

Six months from now we'll have to argue with liberals about the fact that the shooter was not a tea party member and that he was in fact a Occutard. |
