The ABC News producers cutting the Comey special may have been exercising muscles they hadn't used in many years, as the network had to edit down a reported five-hour interview between Comey and Stephanopoulos into a one-hour special. This was the first big primetime exclusive that troubled ABC News has landed since Caitlyn Jenner’s 2015 sit-down with Diane Sawyer.

The interview clearly was a tall order for Stephanopulos -- and not just because he is roughly a foot shorter than Comey. The network chose not to air several key moments, such as when Comey ripped former President Barack Obama. He criticized the former president for comments made during the bureau’s investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server, suggesting Obama “jeopardized” the Justice Department’s “credibility.” However, viewers would need to access the entire transcript online to know Comey’s comments on Obama.

Comey and ABC fake news to make Comey seem critical of his handler, Obama, and therefore "unbiased".

Our Great President coined a term, FAKE NEWS, and it's still appropriate today. Along with our friend WIKILEAKS, we KNOW this:

I don't understand your post.

They left out the part where Comey was critical of Obama, and thereby made Comey seem more biased.
