ABC apologizes for staging crime scene photo
This weekend was one filled with contrition, for John Oliver’s mea culpa for egging on an egomaniac, to ABC News copping to staging a crime scene photo. According to CNN Money, this happened during a recent field report about a South Carolina woman who’d allegedly been locked away in a storage container by a sex offender. For the Good Morning America segment, ABC News correspondent Linsey Davis stood in front of some yellow police tape, appearing to be reporting from the crime scene. But a source reached out to CNN Money, providing the news organization with a photo that shows the tape stretching between pieces of equipment, and not across the actual crime scene.
