Network cites damage to 'our reputation for fairness and impartiality'
Veteran ABC News correspondent David Wright was suspended Wednesday after he was caught in a Project Veritas undercover sting declaring that he was a socialist and referring to President Trump as “this f**ing president.”
In a statement, an ABC spokesperson also said that Mr. Wright, who has worked for the network since 2000, would no longer cover political stories upon his return.

The interesting part is that ABC actually felt the need to make a show of it. Their ratings must be terrible.
He’s in trouble for TELLING THE TRUTH
Imagine that...
The major networks jettisoned any pretense of objectivity long ago. Dog bites man.
David Wright. Magna cum laude, Harvard, and he’s a full-blown socialist.
Is Brain Ross still looking for a job ?
I thought he played for the Mets?
Injuries did him in. He had to take a lower paying job as an MSM propagandist.
SUSPENDED????? NOT FIRED?????
“I am shocked to see gambling at this casino.”
Good one!
Project Veritas closed down ACORN. They have had scrambled things and woken up the public in many cases.
Van Jones is an admitted communist and he is still on one of the networks. When the public found out, he had to resign from the Obama admin.
“Network cites damage to ‘our reputation for fairness and impartiality’””””
ABC Good Morning America hasn’t shown much of that for the last 10 years. Looks more like an extension of BET TV channel.
Jokers
He’s damaging the fake news brand.
Thay are terrific actors! That’s how they do it.
Van Jones is an admitted communist and he is still on one of the networks. When the public found out, he had to resign from the Obama admin.
Mr. Jones was arrested during the rioting in Los Angeles in 1992 that followed the acquittal of the police officers who beat Rodney King. Mr. Jones spoke of that experience in a 2005 interview with a newspaper in the San Francisco Bay area:
“I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28, and then the verdicts came down on April 29,” he told the East Bay Express. “By August, I was a communist.”
Mr. Jones attributed his conversion to the people he met during his incarceration:
“I met all these radical young people of color, I mean really radical, communists and anarchists,” he told the East Bay Express. “It was like ‘this is what I need to be a part of.’ I spent the next 10 years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary.”
Mr. Jones was arrested again in 1999 during the anti-free trade riots in Seattle.
In 1994, Mr. Jones was one of the founders of STORM, a Marxist-Leninist group whose hero was Chinese Communist dictator Mao Tse Tung.
But what did Mr. Jones in was the revelation that in 2004 he had signed a petition calling on then-New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer to investigate whether the Bush administration had been behind the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
Reporters also uncovered a number of racist statements Mr. Jones has made, including this one from January of last year: “the white polluters and white environmentalists are essentially steering poison into the people-of-color communities.”
Who is this creep?
Never saw him before.
