It would be interesting to see how ABC News handled the charges when they were first brought out and in the following months. I bet they were on the guilty band wagon and contributed to the hysteria.

You'd win that bet. Every single DBM outlet jumped right on the Fong bandwagon - according to them, we didn't need no stinkin' trial. Three rich white boys raped a poor black working girl trying to feed her family, so save the tax money and get the rope. To be fair, ABC wasn't the worst or shrillest of them - that would have been Nancy Grace at CNN and Kimberly Guilfoyle at Fox. But ABC was all too happy to follow the lead of these two shrews and pile on.
