So what? Wheter Rich did or didn't do does not matter a whit now. Wilileaks leaked everything they had.Once it was all public, the damage was done, and none is relevant any more now, well over a year later.

I hope they find his killers. I don't think he sent anything to wikileaks, Even if he did, it doesn't matter now.

...and that's why it isn't being covered. It's a dead issue literally and figuratively.

Story on DNC staffer's murder dominated conservative media -- hours later it fell apart

Quote:
Tuesday afternoon, Wheeler told CNN he had no evidence to suggest Rich had contacted Wikileaks before his death.
Wheeler instead said he only learned about the possible existence of such evidence through the reporter he spoke to for the FoxNews.com story.
Quote:
Asked about a quote attributed to him in the Fox News story in which he said his "investigation up to this point shows there was some degree of email exchange between Seth Rich and Wikileaks," Wheeler said he was referring to information that had already been reported in the media.
A Fox News spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment by the time of publication.

Because they aren't insane?

Wake up. The conspiracy theory purveyors are crazy. And those such as the OP who promote this garbage should be ashamed of themselves. Vultures using a death to promote insanity and lies.

Fox News is fake.

"Family of slain Seth Rich says reports he fed WikiLeaks DNC info are untrue..."

WaPo and all the other MSM has no problem peddling stories that are negative about Trump from unnamed sources and are often wrong. CNN will debate it with their hacks as though its 100% true. Good example the WaPo story that Comey was about to expand the Russia investigation which was 100% fake news. What happened to that blockbuster story?

This story does not fit the pile on Trump narrative. For that those on the left have to try to discredit it.

Actually Rod Wheeler himself just discredited it.
He told CNN he has no evidence that Rich contacted Wikileaks, he was just quoting a reporter on the local Fox affiliate.
Without Wheeler, there is no source and no story.

It's not the family speaking, it's Brad Bauman the founder of Soros funded Pastorum Group. He is a 'Democratic Crisis Public Relations Strategist' who claims to be "a political consultant working for Democratic candidates for office and progressive causes. Bauman is the former Executive Director of the Congressional Progressive Caucus.". It's his words, spun by the media to give the impression it's the family.

This should be easy enough to solve. Where's the laptop?

I doubt it's true, but it always shocked me that given the gravity of the situation, that this wasn't more thoroughly investigated. If true, and again it's a longshot, but if true, it would mean all the talk of "An act of war" by Russia, the threats to use the military against Russia, the threats that Obama was going to get Russia, etc. have been misguided. The idea that we may have renewed the cold war with a nuclear super power because we never bothered to check out another possible leaker is frightening.

I read that. It was something the reporter brought up, and as usual- the right wing 'media' twisted it to fit their narrative.

NBC News identified the “third party” who hired Wheeler to investigate Rich’s murder as Ed Butowsky, a Dallas-based financial adviser, who is also a Fox News contributor.
The Fox news contributor hired a PI who is also a Fox news contributor. Sounds like the epitome of 'fake news'.

I'd imagine WTTG might have some retractions/corrections on it by now.. Let's see....

Talk about phony baloney.

Conservatives....you want us to believe that an alien race of lizard people are invading our country and turning all the frogs gay. So how or why would I take anything you say seriously.

FACT CHECK: Did DNC Staffer Seth Rich Send 'Thousands of E-Mails' to WikiLeaks Before He Was Murdered?

I'm not claiming anything except...since the circumstances behind Seth Rich's death remain unknown, how can anything be ruled out and why are people so quick to cry "conspiracy theories" and "fake news" when the facts surrounding his death remain "unknown"?
