The bias and failure of the liberal media have been exposed once again with ABC News’ recent settlement with President Trump for $16 million. In a recent discussion between Megyn Kelly and Adam Carolla, the two shed light on the dire situation at the news network and how it was brought on by their own actions.
Carolla pointed out that ABC News has been consistently wrong on two of the biggest stories in recent years, the Russia collusion hoax and COVID. Kelly added to this by mentioning the staffers’ anger and embarrassment, particularly from Stephanopoulos who was a former Bill Clinton hatchet man and major player in Democrat politics. This is a clear indication that ABC News has been more concerned with pushing their own agenda rather than reporting the truth.
In fact, Carolla stated that “they blew up their own reputation over the last five years systematically” with their biased reporting. This is a damning statement that highlights the dangerous pattern of misinformation from ABC News. And what’s worse is that this misinformation has major consequences, not only for the network’s reputation but for the American public who rely on them for accurate reporting.
It’s no surprise then that ABC News is in full revolt, with rumors swirling that Stephanopoulos may be on his way out the door. But this is just one example of the consequences of their actions. Their settlement with President Trump has also raised concerns about the industry standard and the potential for overturning New York Times v. Sullivan, a landmark Supreme Court case that sets a high bar for finding speech problematic.
ABC News’s failures and bias have not only affected their own reputation but also the entire industry. As Kelly and Carolla discussed, it’s difficult to trust a news network that has been consistently wrong on major stories and blatantly biased in their reporting. It’s time for ABC News to be held accountable for their actions and for the American public to demand better from the media.

The implosion of ABC News is a prime example of the dangers of liberal media bias and the consequences it can have on the public. With their systematic lying and misinformation, they have damaged their own reputation and credibility. It’s time for the truth to be the priority in media, rather than pushing a political agenda. This is an important lesson to be learned, not just for ABC News, but for all media outlets.
