‘Absolute fake news’: ABC’s George Stephanopoulos pounded for deceptive coverage of Texas flooding

‘This would be disturbing news if true. But unsurprisingly, it turns out Stephanopoulos was spreading an easily debunked lie so that he could make Trump look like a villain again’

ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos is coming under fire for his perceived anti-Trump coverage of the catastrophic flash floods that killed dozens in Texas on Saturday, reporting “significant staffing shortfalls” at federal weather stations.

During his “This Week” broadcast on Sunday, Stephanopoulos said to his correspondent Mireya Villarreal on the scene in Kerr County, Texas: “We’re also learning there were significant staffing shortfalls to the National Weather Services offices in the region.”

Villarreal replied: “You know, George, as of right now, the local county officials really didn’t want to address that just yet. What they are telling us is they expected between four and six inches of rain. That is what weather experts told them. The National Weather Service as well.

“They also knew that in remote locations, they might get anywhere from eight to ten inches. But this amount of rain, in such a short amount of time, it was very difficult to navigate.
