Posted by SelkirkTMO on Fri Jul 20 16:42:25 2012, in response to It's Started Already - ABC News Apologizes for trying to link COLO suspect to Tea Party, posted by SLRT on Fri Jul 20 13:02:03 2012. This is what happens when you violate the rule of "three attributable sources" before putting a story on the air. Allegedly, a local Denver TV station made the claim and quickly retracted it. That's only ONE "attributable source" and they walked it back within minutes after the erroneous report.The pressure to get "news" on the air without properly following the rules results in stuff like this. And a network should know better. The requirements there are even higher than for some Podunk TV station. Another example of the high cost of "instant news." :( |
