ABC is an evil enterprise that has to lie to stay alive.

They have two new owners now, James Holmes, TEA Party and Arlene Holmes.

So this woman is woken up at 545 am by some ABC reporter who starts peppering her with questions while she’s still half asleep and knows nothing of what happened yet.

Some jackass trying to impress his boss with the “big story”.

What scum they are.

She was sound asleep. They call her and ambush her with horrifying news, and then twist her words to their sensationalist needs.

FUABC.

We report the news.

You seem to be confusing the news with the truth.

Yeah, but the pyjamas media is bad because it's not "vetted."

I’m glad the mom made this statement. It clears up so much!
poor lady. What a way to wake up.

First Mr Zimmerman, now Mrs Holmes. Who’s next?
Reporters are supposed to report on reality, not create their own fiction.

".. Update: In a subsequent report today, ABC declined to make a correction, but included some additional details about the call between Arlene Holmes and ABC News producer Matthew Mosk:

Mosk said today that he awoke Arlene Holmes and informed her that a man, he believed was her son had been arrested in Aurora and asked to confirm their relationship..."

This is the same Matthew Mosk of MD4BUSH infamy. The bad penny turns up again!

I was skeptical of the way/context that she was quoted from the start. She’d have to be as big a nut as her boy to have said that in the context reported, why, if she had known of his potential, she could possibly be charged as an accomplice, or some sort of charge related to the event. Another bit of proof that ABC’s reporting is agenda based and/or dangerously incompetent.

The question is, who hired him to be the hit man?

What a shock..ABC lied AGAIN..except this time even I fell for it thinking that is what she said..this is why NO ONE trusts the media..what was even more disgusting is that the second after this tragedy happened the first thing ABC does is try to find a connection with the tea party..anything to connect this guy with the GOP..that is the goal of the “Media” today..when a tragedy strikes the first thing they think about is how can this help the Democrat party

I hope she and the defamed TEA party Holmes sue ABC out of existence.
.......................................
And this ought to quiet some of the conspiracy theories about how he paid for it:

Holmes received $171,024 from the National Institute of Health for his first year in the program.:

On the other hand: 0bama and Co, DID actually fund this massacre.

And a further example of why this nation is so incredibly in debt.

Oh, FTA:

This statement is to clarify a statement made by ABC media," said Holmes today through her lawyer, Lisa Damiani.

Looks like mommy is a victim of the common LUIDOL (Lawyered Up In Danger Of litigation) syndrome.

I thought this sounded very fishy from the start. It sounded like someone could have easily asked, "Is this so-n-so who is related to James Holmes?" and the person could have answered, "Yes, you have the right person."

Sounds like that is exactly what happened. ABC needs to have their credentials (whatever those might be) revoked permanently.

Do they have ANY professionals at ABC? Another screwup that won’t be punished.

Seems like everyone at ABC is a Ted Baxter wannabe.

Plenty of folks here on Free Republic repeated that “quote”.

Most of you are jumping to irrational conclusions again, like you have for most of this story.

It is indeed a common tactic for a lawyer to tell their client to walk a statement such as the one the mother made back. I am almost positive that is what is occurring here. She’s going to have to give a deposition under oath that she thought her son was insane based on the statements she provided ABC. Of course her lawyer would tell her to attempt to change the initial version.

Although ABC is a scumbag organization, I doubt they twisted her words in this case.

Sheesh, not everything is a tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy. Being paranoid about literally everything in the world is no good for your health.

As soon as I heard the statement I knew she was referring only to herself. The media tried to spin it and some folks took it hook, line and sinker.
