[TeamJordan23]

Amazing, how the MSM now just gives public airwaves to a proven liar

ABC Taps Andrew Breitbart For Election Night Analysis

Media Matters confirms that ABC News has recruited Andrew Breitbart, the conservative blogger whose out-of-context video footage of Shirley Sherrod got the Agriculture Department official , to provide commentary for the network's election-night newscast.

The news was first reported by Breitbart's own website, BigJournalism, whose editor Dana Loesch is on tap to provide live analysis in the ABC News studio on Election Night. Breitbart is slated appear live from a town hall meeting anchored by ABC's David Muir and Facebook consumer marketing head Randi Zuckerberg.

ABC News spokesman David Ford told Media Matters -- which, in the wake of Sherrod's firing, unveiled a video entitled "The End of Andrew Breitbart's Credibility", and which maintains detailed files on him -- that Breitbart will not have license to lie during the broadcast. "He will be one of many voices on our air, including Bill Adair of Politifact," Ford said. "If Andrew Breitbart says something that is incorrect, we have other voices to call him on it."

16. The "liberal" media ...

can we just drop the pretense that the media is anything other than a bullhorn for right wing fanaticism ...

2. They used to have a credible news organization.

Jake Tapper is a complete joke. Breibart is a fraud and ABC is showing everyone that they care nothing about accuracy or honest reporting.

8. What a joke

I can't imagine ABC ever bringing on someone as left-wing as Breitbart is right-wing, especially someone with such compromised credibility, to do election night "analysis."

ABC is already the network news organization I'm the least likely to turn to, and this idiotic move on their part reassures me that I've been making the right decision.

[Enthusiast]

9. ABC = Fox

One and the same.

[ProfessionalLeftist]

10. No surprise. The lame$tream media loves assassins like Breitbart

They're heros amongst the media ranks. I've seen many of them the likes of Breitbart promoted and given plum and very visible jobs on the air during primetime.

And by assassins I mean mostly character assassins -- except in the case of Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh and Mann Coulter who invoke others to actually try to physically assassinate people.

11. I'm glad I never broke my boycott of ABC. They are not trustworthy.

Of all the people in this world they chose this asshat? Besides competing with Fox, there's gotta be more to this!

They won't let Breitbart lie? Yea, right, he'll just twist and turn the lie to look somewhat credible.

:puke:

12. That Liberal media strikes again!!! n/t

13. I'm using a book for my doctoral class and the author cites Breitbart

as well as World Daily Nut as sources in case studies. I told a friend of mine I wanted to write the author and tell the guy that these are not reputable sources.

14. Well ABC just lost me watching them. Way to go. nt

20. He didn't even say they would correct him.

He said a guest on the might. He didn't say he would be allowed to correct him, he simply said someone on the panel is from politifact as if that proves he will be given the time to correct things we know in advance are lies and are allowing to be told.
