The fake news media has reached a new low in their war against President Trump.
ABC’s latest betrayal of basic journalism just crossed every line imaginable.
And what Aaron Katersky did while covering a national tragedy will leave you absolutely disgusted.
ABC’s Aaron Katersky pulls a fast one on Trump
Tragic news broke from Minneapolis when a disturbed transgender shooter named Robin Westman opened fire at Annunciation Catholic School.
Two innocent children, ages 8 and 10, lost their lives while 18 others were wounded in this senseless act of violence.
President Trump immediately called for flags to be lowered to half-staff and asked Americans to pray for the victims and their families.
But ABC Chief Investigative Reporter Aaron Katersky saw an opportunity to attack Trump even in the midst of this tragedy.
Katersky reported on the shooting and mentioned that the killer had scrawled "the name of President Trump written on the guns."
What Katersky conveniently left out was the full message.
The twisted shooter had actually written "kill Donald Trump" on the weapon.
Katersky made it sound like the shooter was a Trump supporter when the exact opposite was true.
Trump family fires back at ABC’s deception
Donald Trump Jr. wasn’t having any of ABC’s garbage and called them out on social media.
"WTF is wrong with these people!???" Trump Jr. wrote on social media after sharing the ABC footage.
Daily Caller editor Vince Coglianese exposed exactly what ABC did wrong.
"ABC reporter refers to ‘the name of President Trump written on the guns’ without mentioning that the message was ‘kill Donald Trump,’" Coglianese explained.
Fox News personalities Mary Katherine Ham and Guy Benson piled on ABC for their "obvious lie" and called it "anti-journalism."
Breitbart Washington Bureau Chief Matthew Boyle didn’t mince words about what should happen to Katersky.
"ABC should terminate this person immediately," Boyle demanded.
The media’s anti-Trump obsession reaches a new low
Look, here’s what’s really happening with these so-called journalists at ABC.
They’re so obsessed with attacking Trump that they’ll twist the facts of a school shooting to make him look bad.
This wasn’t some innocent mistake or poor word choice – this was deliberate deception designed to mislead viewers.
When you report that Trump’s name appears on a weapon but leave out the word "kill" right in front of it, that’s not an accident.
Think about it – what editor would approve that kind of reporting? The full message completely changes the story. A death threat against Trump becomes evidence that somehow connects him to violence? That’s not journalism.
ABC has turned into something else entirely. These aren’t reporters covering the news – they’re political operatives with microphones.
The contrast couldn’t be sharper. Trump immediately honored the victims and called for prayers. ABC saw the same tragedy and thought about how to use it for political purposes.
Here’s what really gets under your skin about this whole mess. Two kids are dead. Families are destroyed. And ABC’s first instinct was to figure out how to make Trump look bad.
This goes way beyond bias. This is using murdered children as political weapons.
Every time something terrible happens, you can count on outlets like ABC to find some way to blame Trump or make him look dangerous. School shooting? Somehow Trump’s fault. Natural disaster? Trump didn’t care enough. It never stops.
ABC owes the American people an apology and Aaron Katersky deserves to be fired immediately for this deliberate act of journalistic malpractice.
