ABC News has announced that Brian Ross would be suspended for four weeks without pay “effective immediately.”
“It is vital we get the story right and retain the trust we have built with our audience – these are our core principles. We fell far short of that yesterday,” the network said in a statement on Saturday. “Effective immediately, Brian Ross will be suspended for four weeks without pay.”
Ross came under considerable fire on Friday after he erroneously reported on live television that then-candidate Donald Trump had instructed Michael Flynn to make contact with the Russians.

But is there really any difference?
Now that you mention it...
Outside of letting his Bias get in the way of doing his Job, he caused many people invested in the Stock Market to panic thinking they would be losing a bunch of Money.
In addition, there will probably be a shortage of Laptop Computers due to the all the Liberals typing with one hand while jerking off with the other and “soiling” their Keyboards thinking President Trump would be removed from Office.
Without pay.
Judge Jeanine talking about this now in her opening statement!
“he erroneously reported on live television that then-candidate Donald Trump had instructed Michael Flynn to make contact with the Russians.”
If Trump had said that they would have reported it as a lie. Nothing erroneous about it.
Typical overzealous, anti-Trump Fake News behavior. Trump wins yet again.
A nice Christmas break for him, and he’s probably already collected his Christmas spending nest egg.
Like we’re going to believe what ABC says tomorrow.
I don’t think Ross is in any danger of an SEC investigation unless it is proven that he profited personally from this or was motivated by someone who did. Just driving down the stock market in general isn’t going to constitute a crime, although it certainly won’t please those who did lose money. If I were he I wouldn’t be getting on Harry Reid’s treadmill anytime soon.
George Soros will slip Brian Ross a few grand while he’s “suspended”, maybe a trip on the Lolita Express. Soros probably shorted stocks that day and then got the fake news he wanted to make the market tank.
This is just for show.
This must really be a sucky time to be a leftist. They just keep losing and losing and losing.
The closest thing they’ve had to a win was when a dem governor replaced a dem governor in VA.
“Seems like a light punishment.”
Yea, it probably means that he’ll have to make due with $2.37M this year, rather than the promised $2.58M.
Won’t be easy, but I’m sure he can penny-pinch.
