ABC News this morning made a boo-boo in reporting the verdict for US policeman Derek Chauvin, charged with murder and manslaughter of George Floyd.
Chauvin was found guilty on all 3 counts but an ABC News strap briefly noted “not guilty of unintentional murder.”
As Media Watch pointed out, “To be fair it was only up for 5 seconds and corrected.”

Probably a good job that it wasn’t a US tv station based in minnieapolis….
Can the ABC news bureau do anything right lately?
