Brian Ross

In standard fashion of an anti-gun, anti-American news agency ABC news publishes an report by Brian Ross that states that the Batman shooter was a Jim Holmes whom was a member of the Tea Party. The agency later retracts the story and apologizes for "disseminating that information before it was properly vetted". Unfortunately the damage has already been done.

This is becoming standard operation when a there is a mass murder. The media claim that the shooter is a right wing Christian member of the Tea Party. Then when the truth comes out the shooter usually turns out to be a left wing socialist.
