Look, we all make mistakes. But the “real reporters” continue to maintain a superiority complex over the “just bloggers” that is wholly undeserved.
This correction is now at the top of the ABC News report from earlier today in which a false Tea Party tie to the Aurora movie theater shooting was disseminated:
Editor’s Note: An earlier ABC News broadcast report suggested that a Jim Holmes of a Colorado Tea Party organization might be the suspect, but that report was incorrect. ABC News and Brian Ross apologize for the mistake, and for disseminating that information before it was properly vetted.
I’ve documented the Blame Righty impulse extensively. It’s definitely worth a refresher course…
