HEADS SHOULD ROLL: ABC News corrects Brian Ross on ‘candidate’ Trump vs. President-elect Trump
Earlier today, Brian Ross went on ABC and told the world that his sources said that Donald Trump, as a candidate, ordered Michael Flynn to make contact with the Russians. This came at a time when everyone else was only talking about contact with the Russians after Trump was elected. As CNN would say, it’s apples vs. bananas.
Watch:

But CNN’s Oliver Darcy is reporting that ABC News will now correct Ross’s reporting:

That's a bit more than just a minor "oopsie," for God's sake. Unbelievable. https://t.co/jQ6zlX97Eb
