    Kudos to FoxNews (even if you do still employ Shepard Smith).

    Why is CNN so desperate to debunk this story. They've dedicated an entire section for it on their web page.

    Because Trumpsters are going to latch onto it as real news, even after Fox's retraction.

    Fox News retracts its fake news online, regarding Seth Rich,

    while the ignorant Hannity keeps pushing the conspiracy.

    It's been a case of the ignoranus leading sheeps like RocketLegend

    FoxNews.com originally posted a May 16 piece headlined “Slain DNC staffer had contact with WikiLeaks, investigator says.” The story relied on a report by D.C.'s Fox 5 and Rod Wheeler, a former D.C. homicide detective and Fox News contributor, for its sourcing.

    The story soon fell apart / Wheeler backtracked , he told the network

    “he had no evidence to suggest Rich had contacted Wikileaks before his death.”
    Through a spokesperson, Rich’s family asked on May 17 for “a retraction and an apology from Fox News and from the Fox 5 DC affiliate for inaccurate reporting and damaging the legacy of their son."
    Six days later, Fox News has finally retracted its story.

    I think doo doo should use even larger fonts. It might help to get people reading his posts again.

    So Sean Hannity "cucked" and will no longer talk about this fake news either.

    It is amazing to me how quickly and badly the MSM falls for misinformation campaigns like this.
