ABC caved to nothing. They are just dropping the pretense. The whole MSM has fully supported the Republican agenda for my entire life. Any resistance they have shown was just a smokescreen they no longer need as the public has proven to be even more vile than was imagined. The mask is off.
This stunned me!! More than anything else. Don’t they realize if all of these people, including the house and Senate would just stand up to him he would wither away back into the hole he came from.
I know, right?!! How can they not see through the bluff & bluster? (Though unfortunately once he/they are back in the White House, he/they will have more resources & avenues to punish enemies.)
If our bulwarks won't stand up and the checks and balances in our government just lie down and take it, then our democracy is truly over. We will have made it to 248 years and it was ended in a short 10 year period. Astounding!
There was a time when journalists was as highly ranked in the public's eye like firemen or ambulance drivers.
For over two decades now "journalist" are ranked among the least trusted professions in Sweden. The biggest part of that of course is the owners, who sabotages news for profit.
Stephanopolous should refuse to go along if he has any dignity, although I don't know if ABC would continue to support him legally. However, I'm guessing he's prominent enough to get others willing to back (even a GoFundMe would probably elicit millions).
Journalists were complicit in his rise. They thought leopards eating faces would bring in ratings. They never thought the leopards would eat THEIR faces.
Sadly so did George Stephanopoulos by not have pride in himself.. since he calls himself a journalist he shld have resigned from @abcnewsbot.bsky.social! This decision to bow down affects journalism! @marcelias.bsky.social @jimacosta.bsky.social

Have to worry about your legacy.
It's completely the opposite of the "free speech/free press" ethic that, usually, the press fights tooth and nail to uphold
Based on what he said to Colbert, you would think he would be against this settlement?
It’s a small step I hope others will take.
