Brian Ross is leaving ABC after botched Michael Flynn report

ABC News’ Brian Ross — who was suspended last year as chief investigative correspondent for a faulty report on Michael Flynn — is leaving the network, Page Six has exclusively learned.

But they didn’t care about the thousand fake stories he did before this one? Me thinks they just needed an excuse to fire a dinosaur.

“”””He’s looking forward to his new career as a fiction writer.”””””

He did that for years. Maybe he will try his hand at non fiction for a change.

Hey, Brian - how’s that telephone pole feel jammed up your a$$? Another progressive douche bag gets deflated.

I’m sure there is more to the story. He can join the other unemployed exec’s who have stepped down lately.

Brian Ross ✔ @BrianRoss
It's time to say good-bye after 24 years at ABC News, an organization that has meant so much to us. While Rhonda Schwartz and I are signing off from ABC News, we are hardly leaving investigative journalism. There is much more to do. 1:58 PM - Jul 2, 2018

MSNBC and CNN will be happy to have you.

A very accomplished purveyor of fake news. That serious but relaxed facade fooled many over the years.

“Brian Williams still at NBC.”

Good to hear. I thoroughly enjoyed his account of being aboard the USS Missouri when it repelled the alien invasion of Hawaii. Riveting stuff.
