Moving On: ABC Spends Only 16 Seconds on IRS Official's Suspension | Media Research Center

Moving On: ABC Spends Only 16 Seconds on IRS Official's Suspension | Media Research Center: Friday's Good Morning America spent a scant 16 seconds on the newest development in the IRS scandal, the suspension of agency official Lois Lerner who oversaw the division responsible for processing tax-exempt status requests. Lerner headed the division while the IRS gave extra scrutiny to Tea Party groups applying for tax-exempt status.

As an earlier BiasAlert reported, Thursday's World News completely ignored Lerner's move. The MRC's Brent Bozell had predicted that the media would "move on" from the IRS scandal, which explains ABC's paucity of coverage on Thursday and Friday.
