They did the same thing with Jared Loughner accusing him of Tea Party associations at first. Must be the new SOP for the liars in the Enemedia. Falsely accuse then verify later. Such lowest order Orwellian-like scum.
These POS people ought to be.....well.
That was a decent apology.
The Chairman of Disney should FIRE Brian Ross Right Now, and any producers that handed him this information, but they won’t..
"Vetting" stories has nothing to do with this. Their intention was to bring up the possibility whether it was, or could be, possible. Once it airs the damage is done. ABC is just another of Soetoro's liars and enablers. I was taught at a very young age that whatever is said can't be taken back.
I hope he sues them, too. Depends if they knew his age when they reported it and did it anyway for political gain.
Infuriating!
Is there any truth to the allegations that the killer is the homosexual bondage slave of ABC’s Brian Ross who also financed the purchase of the guns and ammunition used in the attack?
If Mr. Ross denies those allegations, what kind of proof can he provide that they are false?
Inquiring minds want to know?
Translation: “We’re sorry, and we’ll do it again, every chance we get!”
“ABC News and Brian Ross apologize for the mistake, and for disseminating that information before it was properly vetted.”
Sorry you got caught trying to propagandize an awful tragedy. Go to blazes ABC, and kindly perform an anatomically impossible act on yourself, Brian Ross. (i.e. go bleep yourself!)
If they start a legal fund to pursue this, I am in
Over four thousand people named James Holmes living in this country, and he was so sure that he was the same one who joined the tea party. ;-)
How much time has he spent investigating the name 0bama?

Someone ought to file a defamation lawsuit immediately.
This stuff has now gone beyond just a liberal media bias. Every single time something like this happens, the left-wing media fish and hunt for any shred of “evidence” that can link conservatives or tea partiers to any crime whatsoever.
Despite the fact that unlike Occupy, Tea party rallies, cleans up and goes home like regular Americans. All these facts don’t matter. “Vetting” doesn’t matter to the media when they let their inherit bias overcome the quest for the truth.
This is how communists spread propaganda and hate, they place the blame on a group of people or a belief
Now they can get onto the real story of this kid being an Occupy terrorist. ...Coming soon, ...er, well, coming sometime, maybe.
They did exactly what they wanted to do, and that was try and associate the killings with the one threat the MSM hates the most.
Their apology is insincere and bogus.
“Rush to Judgement” syndrome.
If Breitbart’s researched information is is declared accurate and true then Colorado Tea Party should not sue ABC if if if ABC agrees to add the words “a registered Democrat” after the shooters name every time it is mentioned on the air on ABC.
For those who are getting upset, I wouldn’t get too overworked about this.
As long as the press continues this behaviour, it only speeds up their death spiral
