You can say for the guy is that for every three ‘big’ stories he broke open...at least one of them was a fake story. It’s curious how the network kept seeing this trend and just never said to the guy that your days are numbered.
I would like to see a complete list of all of his fake news/screw ups...
Flynn Report
Tea Party Mass Shooter
He shouldn’t be fired. He is now an undeniably proven partisan. Leave him there. Why give ABC the chance to put a new reporter in place and pretend he is a real journalist?
Brian Ross is no more than a partisan hack.
No true news organization has a place for people like that whether conservative or liberal. Fire the guy not because he is partisan but because he is a liar and his stories are untrue.
He should just be the evening anchor at ABC or the Today show host at NBC.
You might want to read the article to see that.
Brian Ross was also involved in fake news stories when he was a reporter on the NBC show “Dateline”. In 1993 NBC had to apologize for two Brian Ross investigative segments involving a North Carolina eye clinic:

and a story about alleged defects in GMC pickup trucks in which NBC staged the explosion of a GMC pickup truck

The failure of the journalism profession to demand Ross be fired is more evidence of complete corruption of the media and the total lack of standards.
Fired years ago by NBC..
I could never stand Brian Ross.
But the entire news media has gotten so prejudiced that I simply no longer watch TV news, national news OR local news.
I record the local news segment, and fast-forward to the local weather segment. That, at least, has not yet succumbed to political correctness.
Of course he should be fired. He has no credibility. His name is now associated with FAKE NEWS.
Brian Ross only does what his bosses instruct. When caught in fake news ABC (allegedly) “suspends” him (LOL!)... the entire alphabet “news” organizations should be “suspended”... they’re ALL partisan hacks!
What mazin is they continue to report as if they still have a monopoly... that their lies don’t get exposed. How outta touch and tone deaf can they be?!?
MSM motto: When your lies don’t work... lie harder, LIE LOUDER!!!
Should be fired? For what? He was doing the job ABC wanted him to do. Look at Joy Behar.
He got suspended for being to blarant
Because Brian Ross didn't DO this in a vacuum.
NONE of these talking heads go out and find these stories and do the investigation. All they do is sit in front of the camera and read the script. They are there because of their 'personality'.
The 'network' never told him his days were numbered because he was doing EXACTLY what they instructed him to do, every SECOND he was on the air.
I realize you meant a typo and meant blatant.
Brian Ross would screw up a report of a kitten stuck in a tree.
I haven’t watched ABC News in ages, and neither CBS, CNN, NBC and PMSNBC
Dan Rather redux: “fake but accurate”.
Ugh. Thanks. am the worst at letting typos or autocorrect go through
Brent Bozell God bless him, is so naive. His headline suggests ABC should be shocked, shocked!
Or that we should
We are happy when we see this overreach.
Mainstream Media can do nothing but suspend its way into oblivion.
BTW ABC is done. On their way out. The snowflakes people make fun of, the ones poised to take over this country, leaving us in their path, they don’t watch this crap. They hate hillary - she underestimated them as well
Any of us would have been after this many high-profile screw-ups.
