It's one thing to report dishonestly. It's another to proudly display it.
The front page of the ABC "World News" website now contains a "Countdown to U.S. Debt Default' clock:
As NewsBusters reported Thursday, the Treasury is expecting to take in $172 billion in tax receipts in August.
As the total interest due on our nation's debt will likely not be greater than $35 billion, we will bring in almost five times as much in taxes which means there will not be a debt default.
To suggest otherwise is just a flat out lie.
For a leading American "news" organization to be publicly counting down to something that won't happen is really the height of dishonesty.
ABC should be ashamed of itself, as should Diane Sawyer.
