ABC News shit the bed by publishing fake news on Friday. They know it too.

I don’t know who you’re referring to in using the term “the right”. I myself am on the right, and while I think the MSM is definitely biased to the left, it’s not to the point of standing by egregiously false news on subjects that will obviously come to light.

The bias manifests itself in much subtler ways, e.g. in choice of subjects to report on, in emphasis and tone, and in interpretation of ambiguous evidence.

OK, perhaps my choice of words should have been finer. Perhaps “Trumpists” would be better? From my observation, and that includes the president, there is an attempt to label MSM, as a whole, as “fake news.”
