Ok, so we’re not 100% sure this is actually real but wow … it certainly looks like the same footage. But as with all things Twitter, we are sharing with a grain of salt.

Maybe two grains of salt.

Watch.

Wow! ABC News is trying to pass gun range videos as combat footage from Syria pic.twitter.com/zfTWtwwSfZ — Wojciech Pawelczyk ???? (@PolishPatriotTM) October 14, 2019

It certainly looks like the same footage … and then there’s the alleged source of the alleged video.

See what we mean?

AGAIN, this could be just another meme where this footage was super-imposed onto the screen to make it appear ABC News was doing something underhanded but if not … yikes.

Wow. That is a crystal clear example of what passes for "journalism" in 2019. Well done. — Blue State Snooze (@BlueSnoozeBlue) October 14, 2019

The fact we immediately question whether or not ABC News would actually do this says so much about the media in 2019 and ain’t none of it good.

The media continues to reveal themselves as fans of forever wars. — Dog guy (@Catsorange1) October 14, 2019

If @ABC News made a mistake, then their incompetence is startling. If they did it on purpose (and with the edits to the video, that seems to be the case), then they’re an outright evil group of bald-faced liars pretending to report the news. https://t.co/xffDqO7114 — JD Rucker (@JDRucker) October 14, 2019

If this was a mistake by ABC, wow.

If deliberate, double wow.

Keep in mind folks, it’s Twitter and anything is possible.

They did say "It appears to be" all the while knowing damn well where the footage came from. No one was injured or killed in that footage. Just 'Mericans doing what they do. — Sgt Skillcraft (@Sgt_Skillcraft) October 14, 2019

I think this may actually be the range video used (from 2017, not the 2016 one cited in the article):https://t.co/TTXe5iEnJv — John Wolf (@LoneJohnWolf1) October 14, 2019

Nothing appears to be clear here (yay!), but we’ll keep an eye on this story, look for any corrections from ABC, and/or verification that it’s real or not.

Until then, don’t pull the tinfoil too tight. 😉

— UPDATED —

CORRECTION: We’ve taken down video that aired on “World News Tonight" Sunday and “Good Morning America” this morning that appeared to be from the Syrian border immediately after questions were raised about its accuracy. ABC News regrets the error. — World News Tonight (@ABCWorldNews) October 14, 2019

So it was an ‘error.’ Sure it was.
