Thanks Steve Benen & MediaMatters and all of us who made our outrage known!

"This afternoon, following heavy criticism -- including from within ABC's own newsroom -- ABC released a statement from Andrew Morse, executive producer for ABC News Digital. According to Morse, "Breitbart will not be a part of the ABC News broadcast coverage" and will instead be "participating in an online-only discussion and debate to be moderated by David Muir and Facebook's Randi Zuckerberg on ABCNews.com and Facebook":

Since conservative commentator Andrew Breitbart announced on his website that he was going to be a participant in ABC's Town Hall meeting at Arizona State University, there has been considerable consternation and misinformation regarding my decision to ask him to participate in an election night Town Hall event for ABC News Digital. I want to explain what Mr. Breitbart's role has always been as one of our guests at our digital town hall event:

Mr. Breitbart is not an ABC News analyst.

He is not an ABC News consultant.

He is not, in any way, affiliated with ABC News.

He is not being paid by ABC News.

He has not been asked to analyze the results of the election for ABC News."
