I actually didn't know that.
But it's not like ABC doesn't have a reputation for slanting their stories to fit an agenda

If we're going to post videos of ABC making shit up as they go along we have got to include this

If I were a betting man, I'd bet ABC paid a "source" they thought was local for that video and got scammed. I recall reading Robert Fisk's "Pity the Nation" about the civil war in Lebanon and how much of the "on the scene reporting" was actually done from Cyprus or the like. Many of the western news sources deemed it too dangerous (and who could blame them?) to have their reporters actually in the war zone, so they had to rely on hearsay and sources they couldn't verify. They wouldn't actually lie but would use vague phrases like "reporting from the Mediterranean" or the like and give the impression they were in Lebanon.
In the age of the constant multi-channel news cycle and social media alternate news sources, it's become even more important to be first than be right. There's been Twitter frauds reported as news prior to being vetted, etc.
Sorta around sometimes for some of your shitty mod needs.
Oh, right, because nobody else does that. {/sarc}
It tells me something that there is more outrage over ABC using stock video footage than there is about NBC covering up Matt Lauer's {alleged) serial sexual harassment.
If we have to march off into the next world, let us walk there on the bodies of our enemies.
I kind of don't know what to tell you. I don't watch the national news, it's all bullshit. I barely watch the local news. I said all that to say that I think I've only ever heard that Matt Lauer was a serial rapist or whatever one time
It's not stock footage. It's some phone video they grabbed and intentionally edited and then lied about until they got caught.
