they need a class action for stock losses. If you lost money call your lawyer for contingent fee class action. Many stop orderes were triggered . We are talking billions in my estimation.

Fixed. Ross isn't stupid, he's a lying POS.

He may be a lying POS, but he is also stupid. I've seen two "Brian Ross Reports" in which the stupid F***er made the world a more dangerous place.

In one episode, he showed how easy it was to sneak fissionable material in the United States. The sh*t head didn't seem to know that Robert Oppenheimer himself testified to congress about the difficulty of preventing nuclear material from coming into our ports. Congress asked him what sort of equipment would be needed to detect smuggled nuclear material.

He said "A screwdriver. You will have to open every container that comes into the country."

On another episode, he showed terrorists how to blow up trains carrying deadly chemicals so that they could potentially kill 100,000 people. Again, Stupid Brian Ross did not understand that this problem is impossible to stop, and by letting the terrorist know about this vulnerability, he made it all the more likely someone would commit such an act.

Brian Ross is an astonishing level of stupid. Did you know it was him that rigged the Chevrolet pickup truck to explode by putting pyrotechnics on it that were designed to light off the gas tank on impact?

He wanted to demonstrate a Chevy truck gas tank blowing up, so he rigged it to blow up. This is how he got fired from NBC.

Brian Ross is a lying POS *AND* a stupid sh*t head.

“...after Ross got a major piece of news wrong about the FBI investigation.”

There’s the first lie! Ross got nothing “wrong,” what he did was intentional, and that’s why the head Capo at ABC is our “apologizing profusely.” Because this useless shmeckel knows that he could have some major legal exposure coming his way very soon.

““Everyone is just in shock and very upset,”...that Brian Ross caught lying

No they are not upset Ross got it wrong.

They are upset because the info was not correct. They were all salivating it was true.

They are pissed the info wasn’t correct, not that Ross wasn’t correct. Let’s just clear this up right now

ABC News wanted the Ross report to be true so no one bothered to fact check the report. They were too busy celebrating like that Behar woman.

Biased agenda driven dishonesty.

They should be challenged to prove it was not intentional.

Reeling is not good enough.

A special prosecutor needs to review any large investment decisions made by Ross or others at ABC just prior to releasing this fake news.

If anyone made money off of crashing the stock market, there should be criminal charges.

ABCNNBCBS all all about selling eyeballs. They couldn’t care less if they’re right or wrong, accurate or inaccurate. So long as people tune in.

Crocodile tears.

They are upset that they got caught.

Watched the 60 Minutes 50th Anniversary Special last night.

They covered some of their past “mistakes”, one of them being the Dan Rather fake Document story about President Bush and the Air National Guard in 2004.

They downplayed it and never mentioned Dan Rather or his Producer Mary Mapes by name. Here is my shocked face. #;^O

Sadly the SEC has been a quasi self policy type organization without staff or $. But seriously folks, the swing the caused in the market, akin to yelling fire in a theater? And no one is getting at least a stern talking to by the SEC?

Imagine if Lou Dobbs or Stuart Varney did something like this pn Fox in the 8 yrs of who know who's Administration, they'd be all over them like a cheap suit.
