ABC News issues correction: Trump did not ask Michael Flynn to contact the Russians as a candidate
by Diana Stancy Correll | Dec 1, 2017, 8:14 PM | Updated Dec 1, 2017, 11:36 PM

ABC News issued a correction Friday on a report published earlier in the day that stated former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn was instructed by President Trump to contact Russians while Trump was still a candidate.

Instead, the "clarification," later changed to a "correction," noted that Trump's request came after the election – a significant detail as Trump would have been transitioning from campaign mode to preparing for the start of his administration, but still might put Flynn in danger of violating the 1799 Logan Act because he was a private citizen at the time.

You know what?  Truth matters and this isn't some weekly gazette.  This false story actually affected the stock market.

I know we worship freedom of the press but it needs to come with some responsibility.  Blatant lies that hurt people should have consequences.
