Jon Stewart mocks ABC reporter for associating CO shooter with tea party
ABC News reporter Brian Ross caught a lot of well-deserved flack for reporting immediately after the Aurora shooting that James Holmes, the alleged shooter, may have been the same “Jim Holmes” found on a local tea party web site.
On last night’s Daily Show, Jon Stewart weighed in:
“[ABC News Anchor] George Stephanopoulos is in the middle of doing a lot of things. But I’m assuming that he was under the impression Brian Ross checks out the sh-t he says on-air before saying it, since Brian Ross is their chief investigative correspondent and not, let’s say, the office gossip.”

Posted on July 25, 2012 at 1:36pmWhs is there no conversation about George Stephanopoulos? He set up the question for Brian Ross. He knew FULL WELL what the answer would be; not to mention the producer.

Posted on July 24, 2012 at 1:12pmJohn Stewart is just setting the stage for if the shooter was part of OWS so he can say it didn’t matter. In his defense I hope he does finally see the difference between Tea Party and OWS, but you never know.

Posted on July 24, 2012 at 10:09amStewart is in the same league as Ross and Stephanapolis, though he doesn’t want to let you figure that out..just making a joke out of a catastrophic information gaffe, doesn’t lessen or hide Stewart and his ilk, and their purpose…And that is to spread Lies and disinformation about The Regime.
