    Remember this from yesterday?

    On a television news segment that aired in Washington, DC, on Monday, private investigator Rod Wheeler was interviewed by a reporter. "You have sources at the FBI saying that there is information that could link Seth Rich to WikiLeaks?" she asks.

    "Absolutely," Wheeler responds. "And that's confirmed."

    "My investigation up to this point shows there was some degree of email exchange between Seth Rich and WikiLeaks,” Wheeler also said, according to a Fox News report.


    Guess what, this is what the 'source' has to say now


    But on Tuesday, Wheeler told BuzzFeed News that he had no personal knowledge of whether Rich sent emails to a contact at WikiLeaks.

    "That story on Fox 5 last night was inaccurate," said Wheeler, a former DC homicide detective. "I don't even know where the computers are."

    Fox 5 in Washington first reported on Monday night that Wheeler had learned of emails linking the slain staffer, Seth Rich, to WikiLeaks. The story was picked up nationally by Fox News on Tuesday as well as right-wing outlets that linked Wheeler's statements to conspiracy theories that claim Rich's death was ordered by the Clintons as retribution for leaking emails to WikiLeaks.

    Sounds like some fake news from Fox. They're taking lessons from the Washington Post, CNN and the NYT.

    Remember the golden shower news? I guess we don't bring that stupid crap up when we talk about how lefties are liars, etc....just the righties!

    Blah blah blah

    So the ENTIRE media including RIGHT-WING reported on a Dossier by British Intelligence and it's the lefties are at fault because they didn't cover it up for the messiah.

    This from the guy who posted a hoax story yesterday about 'Seth Rich' and 'Wikileaks' emails.

    Right wing hypocrisy knows no bounds

    from your buzz feed story..

    1.
    Fox News also reported that an unnamed federal investigator claimed Rich had provided more than 40,000 DNC emails to a WikiLeaks contact.

    Late Tuesday, Wheeler told BuzzFeed News he knew about possible emails linking Rich and WikiLeaks because of a FoxNews.com story by reporter Malia Zimmerman. Wheeler, who is also a Fox News contributor, said he doesn't know who her source is and hadn't personally seen any evidence suggesting that Rich leaked emails to WikiLeaks.

    2.
    Shortly after that conversation, Wheeler appeared on Fox News.

    "I don't know for sure, I don't know as a matter of fact if the emails went out to the WikiLeaks or anybody else," Wheeler told Sean Hannity. "But it sure appears that way."

    1. Fox News was quoting Wheeler

    2. Fox News has lied about FBI sources before (see Clinton indictment story they apologized for)

    3. Thanks for confirming Wheeler lied. 'I don't know as a matter of fact but it appears'


    But but where is the evidence of Russian collusion?? ROFLMAO!!

    fox news was also quoting a federal law enforcement source... who gave them very specific details. Why are you misrepresenting this story.

    here is one the tips...

    The federal investigator, who requested anonymity, said 44,053 emails and 17,761 attachments between Democratic National Committee leaders, spanning from January 2015 through late May 2016, were transferred from Rich to MacFadyen before May 21.

    No they are not - they are quoting Wheeler who says he is quoting Fox.

    It's your echo chamber at work.

    Secondly, there is no federal investigation, FBI has outright denied they are investigating Seth Rich case.

    Fox News making stuff up again just like their sources who told Clinton getting indicted
