I dont think it is having much of an slow down effect on sean hannity, his entire radio show today has been about kimdotcom, seth rich assange, russian hearings. He read the whole statement from kimdotcom in full.

Should be interesting to see the TV show on fox tonight

Of course it won't slow down Hannity. He's a television personality, so everything is dross for his mill. It doesn't matter whether it's true or not, even if his own network disavows the story. Ratings will win out!

Fox News's ratings are way down, anyway, so who cares? It's not like they have the audience that advertisers covet. Their audience's age averages well north of 70, so the only companies that advertise on Fox are for adult diapers, erectile dysfunction pills, and those "buy gold now" scammers.

Too bad we can't get Bentbow, FunctionX and a few others to issue a retraction for their part. Of course that would take some b*lls on their part.

Funny, the whole Seth Rich murder hanging over the democrats like the Grim Reaper thread has vanished...

Fox News removes false story on Seth Rich's murder -- six days after it was debunked - May. 23, 2017




Fox News just retracted its Seth Rich conspiracy story, admitting it wasn't 'subjected' to a 'high degree of editorial scrutiny'


http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017...stigation.html

On May 16, a story was posted on the Fox News website on the investigation into the 2016 murder of DNC Staffer Seth Rich. The article was not initially subjected to the high degree of editorial scrutiny we require for all our reporting. Upon appropriate review, the article was found not to meet those standards and has since been removed.


In other words FAKE NEWS!
