Quote: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.

We will continue to investigate this story and will provide updates as warranted.

This is the only response Fox News has given regarding their wholly fabricated story involving Seth Rich and Wikileaks, in which they implied Seth Rich was murdered by the DNC because he gave them the DNC emails. No one has been suspended, no article written on the issue by Fox, and there was certainly no serious attempt at making their retraction known to the many viewers who still repeat this fake news story here.

Where's the outrage?

Like #pizzagate, just because the fake news media builds up and knocks over a strawman, doesn't mean they have debunked anything.

1. Wikileaks data dumps have been, up until this point, accurate. But Assange himself has lied on many occasions, Wikileaks has shown a distinct bias by literally coordinating with Trump Jr to time their leaks, and tellingly there have been no leaks harmful to Putin or Russia in the last few years. Assange admitted he had RNC emails, but stated he chose not to release them. He stated he would never name a source, yet he claims the DNC emails came from Seth Rich. Provide some sort of evidence that is the case, Assange certainly has the ability to do so if he knew his source, yet there's nothing.

2. A person whose coworker was murdered, working on an election in which there was well known and documented foreign involvement, stated she was scared? Color me shocked. But contorting that to be evidence that Seth Rich was murdered by the DNC because he leaked emails? It's not as if she's been silent, where are any follow up claims which clarify this to mean what you claim it to mean? Sure seems like you're working backwards, trying to find evidence to fit your narrative, and ignoring evidence from those same sources which run contrary to it.

3. What is there to debunk about the Pizzagate that hasn't been debunked? Specific examples.
