    ABCNews: Gibson Says he DIDNT know about ACORN Scandal

    ACORN Watch: Charlie Gibson and the ostrich media; Update: Audio added
    By Michelle Malkin • September 15, 2009 09:52 AM

    Several Chicago readers and Twitterers report that ABC News anchor Charlie Gibson told WLS-AM Chicago talk show hosts Don Wade and Roma this morning that the reason he hasn’t covered the ACORN scandal is that he didn’t know about it.

    Reader Patrick M. e-mails:

    While listening to Don Wade and Roma this morning on WLS AM Chicago, they had Charlie Gibson on as their usual Tuesday morning guest. Don asked Charlie, why, after the senate last night voted to halt funding to ACORN and after three of those video tapes of ACORN employees helping the pimp and prostitute set up shop, there was no mention of it anywhere on the network news. Charlie gave out a most uncomfortable laugh and said that that was the first he heard of it!

    Don and Roma pointed out that ABC’s Jake Tapper reported on the Census Bureau’s decision to drop ACORN from its data collection partnerships on Friday as a result of BigGovernment.com’s video stings.

    Gibson also admitted to Don and Roma that he didn’t know about the Senate vote to de-fund ACORN.

    Gibson’s got his head in the sand. So typical of the ostrich media.

    ***
    Update: Courtesy of Don and Roma and WLS, here is the audio clip of Gibson. His laugh is really something. Reminded me of Barney Rubble. My favorite comment from Gibson? When he snarks that “Maybe that’s just one you leave to the cables.â€

    Horse puckey! These news shows have a huge staff of researchers, as well as folks tuning in to see what other stations are doing. He was probably told by corporate powers to not touch ACORN.

    He's supposedly a "journalist" and didn't know about it? Wow, what a newsman, keep sticking your head in the sand, Chuckie. Your ratings reflect your credibility.
