It Is Shameful That ABC News and CBS News Are Punishing the Epstein Leaker

It gives me no pleasure to report that I agree, on just this one thing, with Donald Trump Jr., who went on The View Thursday to say he shouldn’t be condemned for naming the Ukraine whistle-blower when ABC News is cracking down on its own Jeffrey Epstein–related leaker.

This is a matter on which Trump Jr. is both self-serving and hypocritical, but let us acknowledge this broken clock. News organizations should not hunt down leakers in their ranks, not when it’s a matter of valid public interest — specifically, how the press reported on a serial abuser — even if the ultimate beneficiary is an ethics-free garbage fire like James O’Keefe’s right-wing muckraking outfit, Project Veritas.

I feel bad for her, but if you watched the interview with Megyn, the tweeny didn't think that ABC did anything wrong by deep-sixing the Epstein stuff.

She was actually bemoaning her defenestration from the NaziMedia Party, and wanted her Party card back.

Punishing the wrong person.

“Not only that - Irin the LibTard got the part about “the leaker” wrong.

The little girl at CBS didn’t do it. “

Exactly.

1. They’re going to have to change the headline and issue a correction, which keeps the story up front.

2. ABC News made their position ten times worse by firing the wrong employee, and they dragged CBS News along with them to boot.

What a complete and total f’ up!

Walt Disney, a rather shy, good ole Chicago boy, must be turning over in his grave...or his block of ice...if he could know how his good and revered name has been dishonored, debased and tainted by the Left's fifth column which, among so many places, has infiltrated the ownership of the ABC network.

(A stubborn old urban legend has it that Disney's body was cryonically preserved for all time...i.e., frozen and buried in an undisclosed location so he could live again in the future).

Yes, which makes this much more egregious.

This has to be the biggest foot-shot since that DEA agent lectured a high school class on gun safety.

Well said, Leni.

Better yet, O’Keefe says she is not his whistleblower. Who wants to bet she is about to sue the asses off of ABC and CBS? Talk about a classic Fascist knee jerk reaction in violation of the First Amendment. I don’t know what her political affiliation is, but after this brutal beating I’m guessing she is evaluating who really supports the First Amendment.

At least 60 Minutes Australia had the courage to do a story "Exposing Jeffrey Epstein's international sex trafficking ring | 60 Minutes Australia"
