Bozell Statement: ABC Plunges Off Credibility Cliff

The "fiscal cliff" is looming, but ABC has already plunged off the credibility cliff. No serious news organization could possibly commit 17 times more coverage to touting tax hikes as the solution to this crisis than spending cuts. ABC News is nothing more than the press office of the Obama Administration. They’re an embarrassment to the profession.

Instead of telling the American people the truth about the Obama Administration’s reckless spending binge, the tax-happy liberal media are toeing the party line: raise taxes on the "wealthy" and the crisis will be averted. As guilty as NBC and CBS are on this issue, ABC is without a doubt the most corrupt. ABC News’ coverage of the fiscal cliff is an abomination, and they simply can’t be trusted.
