As much as I view Fox News as a plague on this country the Rich family won’t win this lawsuit. Even though the Gawker lawsuit was groundbreaking it won’t help here. However, if people care to see that the evidence Fox “news” used to run that story it was quite unbelievable that it even aired. If I remember right this story was run right after FBI Director Comey was fired and the White House was having a hard time defending the firing. The Lester Holt interview didn’t help their story, so they needed a distraction for the viewers of Fox “News”. They destroyed Seth Rich’s family as a diversion to protect Trump. CNN ran a bad story and fired everyone attached to it. Fox News has mastered the technique of “SCREAM BLOODY MURDER” then retract the story a week later, in fact the Lie Now Retract later technique is a huge reason why we are in this mess now.
As for Fox News on a different planet then NPR listeners I would agree with this assessment. There is no Uranium One Scandal, the FISA Judges were picked by Chief Justice John Roberts (Republican appointee), they were honest with the judges that some of the information was politically motivated. However, it was George Papadopoulos who started the FBI investigation. Fox news has created a completely different reality for their viewers than those of us “in reality-based communities” live.
As for the George Soros boogeyman for the Conservative wing…. where is the outrage about the Koch Brothers, Mercer Family, and Betsy DeVos straight up buying her way to the Ed Sect?
