ABC World News used footage of a gun range explosion extravaganza in Kentucky as their footage for Turkey invading Syria.

They never issued a correction or an apology.

I didn't realize it was the New York Times' job to apologize for ABC. Weird.

Also:

ABC has a really good team that does this work, she wrote via email. But I assume that on a Sunday, when they were probably stretched for staff, they failed to do the necessary verification checks, and under the pressure that comes with breaking news, this got through.

The pressure that comes with breaking news, eh???

So it's better to push wrong information first, than to be the one who pushes correct information last.

Journalism 101.

AKA: bullshit 101.
