In frantic damage control mode, ABCs George Stephanopoulos ran to the safe zone of the left-wing Politico to announce the he will recuse himself from ABCs February GOP debate in New Hampshire. He also admitted that the total amount he contributed to the Clinton Foundation was a whopping $75,000, not the $50,000, as originally reported.
The chief anchor and political correspondent at ABC News now admits he should never have donated money to the Clinton Foundation, and that he should have disclosed his donations to ABC News viewers.
As of now, probably as they gauge the fallout, ABC News stands by Stephanopoulos. He told Politico he intends to go back to business as usual, co-anchoring Good Morning America and hosting the Sunday news show This Week.
Stephanopoulos also said he would continue to cover the 2016 presidential election.
The seediness of everyones behavior in this matter Stephanopoulos and ABC News goes way beyond what unraveled the career of NBC News anchor Brian Williams.

too bad, i was looking forward to both cruz and christie ripping crappadopolous to shreds.
George is a peter-puffer...
Nothing to see here, move along. LibMedia has never been, nor will they ever be, objective investigative reporters.
Steponallofus is gone. Good, one down, who’s next?
When is a debate going to be moderated by a GOP person? Even a GOPe person? Or a neutral person?
These debates that are moderated by progressives, with the entire production crew progressives too, are tiresome.
Who is going to start the war on women meme this time?
do you think the average American is going to read that he donated the equivalent of one year's salary for most to the dems.
they are too busy playing candy crush.
Why the H@!! is ABC etc having anything to do with a GOP or E-GOP debate after the stewping they gave us in 2012?
Why aren't we on SPAN / Beck / PBS Only with a dais of Nothing but intelligent Right of Center questioners? ( aka Prager, Hewitt, Goldberg etc etc etc )
Pribus you should be fired!!!!
What does this tell us of the state of the media? They are liars, incompetent, addicts, and cannot be trusted.
Stephanopoulos also said he would continue to cover the 2016 presidential election.
12 months from now, abc: Well...we changed our minds now...the people want George
abc exec: George is sorry, he is going to be good now
abc exec in private: The filthy masses are stupid, they cant remember anything beyond a week, tell them anything and then just ignore them.
"Recuse Himself", my azz. No GOP presidential candidate with half an ounce of brains would agree to a debate with this weasel as moderator.
Pray America is waking
The Greek version of Brian Williams.....Meet George S.
LOL!
Where is the IRS now?
Fire the SOB.
By hiring a former White House spokesman and paying him millions in salary they are gave every future White House spokesman reason to hope for the same, thus assuring ABC news close access to the White House and lots of juicy leaks.
Why would the Republicans consent to use him anyway?
Could we not at least pick a neutral party?
