Brian Ross is leaving ABC News
ABC News’ Brian Ross — who was suspended last year as chief investigative correspondent for a faulty report on Michael Flynn — is leaving the network
https://pagesix.com/2018/07/02/brian...-flynn-report/ ABC suspended Ross last December for a month without pay for a botched report on ousted White House national security adviser Flynn that reported President Trump directed Flynn to make contact with Russian officials. The mistake even sent stocks tumbling, and ABC issued an apology saying: “We deeply regret and apologize for the serious error.” We hear that Ross on Monday announced he’s leaving the network. His longtime executive producer Rhonda Schwartz is also exiting. “The time has come to say good-bye,” said the duo in a letter to staff with an announcement by ABC News president James Goldston. “After a great run of 24 years, we have decided to pack up and move on from ABC News, an organization that has meant so much to us. We leave with enormous gratitude for all those who supported us and helped build the industry’s most robust and honored investigative unit.” They added: “While we are signing off from ABC News, we are hardly leaving investigative journalism. There is much more to do.” When Ross returned from his suspension, he kept the same title, but moved to another unit of ABC, Lincoln Square Productions, with offices blocks from the news division, to work on “long-term projects,” plus “20/20” and “Nightline.” |

If news orgs are firing reporters that are politically biased... then there should be 1000's of them that had gotten the axe.

Just wait till Elon Musk’s new website is up and running. Then a lot of reporters will get outed for their involvements and lying.

He and his producer didn't get fired, well not entirely, for the Flynn thing. Read what Sundance has to say about it. Ross was almost assuredly "Reporter No. 4" in the federal indictment of Senate former senior senate intelligence committee staffer James Wolfe. In other words, he was complicit with disseminating leaked classified intelligence.

I know he got fired, but the reason wasn't just that he reported a fake news story about Flynn. That was just the sting. It was that he had been reporting classified information leaks provided to him by Wolfe and no doubt others. It's also why he may be in a lot more trouble than just losing his job.
