Special “Sunday Sermon” E-dition

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 3, 2017

This Sunday in America…
… at the Church of The Compassionate Conservative, Beloved Whistleblower Publisher, the Right-Wing Reverend Charles Foster Kane was asking his Political Parishioners to ask for God’s help to Pray For Probity In The Press, especially after ABC News actually suspended chief investigative correspondent Brian Ross for only four weeks without pay for the most recent error of the Radical Liberal Journalist’s career when he dishonestly claimed that candidate Donald Trump had instructed Michael Flynn to make contact with Russian officials. In reality, President-Elect Trump had only done so after the election.

DemocRAT-colluding ABC apologized for Flynn’s so-called “incorrect reporting,” claiming “[w]e deeply regret and apologize for the serious error we made yesterday” because Ross’ scoop “had not been fully vetted through our editorial standards process.”

Ross also reported on Friday that Flynn was willing to testify against President Trump, the First Family, and the White House along with how Flynn decided to cooperate in the Mueller probe due to the crushing legal bills.

Ross latest blunder set back Fake News Media Credibility even further after when the stock market plunged 350 points immediately after Ross’ “False News on Steroids.”

No wonder President Trump encouraged a class-action lawsuit against ABC News over its fallacious report on the Trump-Russia investigation.

“People who lost money when the Stock Market went down 350 points based on the False and Dishonest reporting of Brian Ross of @ABC News (he has been suspended), should consider hiring a lawyer and suing ABC for the damages this bad reporting has caused – many millions of dollars!” he wrote.

The Stock Market closed down 40 points on Friday, and it’s currently unclear how much money investors may have lost from the dip after the ABC story.

Ironically, other Fake News Networks were quick to capitalize on ABC’s Debacle.

Maybe that’s why as a candidate, president-elect, and president, Trump has often suggested changing libel laws or starting congressional investigations into news network to make it easier to punish media outlets for false reporting. 

“And maybe that’s why ‘Bearing False Witness” is included in the Ten Commandments,” our Right-Wing Reverend concluded.
