  • FOX settles lawsuit in wrongful death Seth Rich

    Fox News Settles With Seth Rich's Parents For False Story Claiming Clinton Leaks


    DAVID FOLKENFLIK
    Twitter

    The Fox News Channel has reached a private settlement with the parents of the slain Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich. The network had baselessly reported in May 2017 that Rich leaked thousands of Democratic party emails to Wikileaks during the height of the 2016 presidential campaign.

    The story, reported by Fox News' Malia Zimmerman and retracted seven days later, also suggested without any evidence that Democrats might have been linked to the killing of the 27-year-old Rich, a crime that has not been solved to this day. A Fox News spokesperson tells NPR that Zimmerman is no longer with the network.

    "The settlement with Fox News closes another chapter in our efforts to mourn the murder of our beloved Seth, whom we miss every single day," Joel and Mary Rich wrote in their statement. "We are pleased with the settlement of this and sincerely hope that the media will take genuine caution in the future."

    Fox News issued a statement through a spokesperson: "We are pleased with the resolution of the claims and hope this enables Mr. and Mrs. Rich to find a small degree of peace and solace moving forward."

    I wish I could describe the Seth Rich conspiracy as Fox's low point but now they have thousands of COVID19 deaths on their hands too. Truly one of the worst companies outside of Facebook for our civic and medical health.

      I mean, if that's the case then we could claim so does Fauci and the CDC have thousands of deaths on their hands, what with the whole "don't wear masks, they don't do anything" and "don't wear masks, they make it worse" period this Spring we got to hear from them.....

          Only people proud to wear their ignorance on their sleeve would claim such things that but you do you.

                Like I said, wearing your ignorance or incompetence on your sleeve. If you really think the two things are analogous then I am certain I am not the one who will get you to realize why they are not the same.

                              Only if 60 Minutes runs on Fox

                              From March 8th


                              “There’s no reason to be walking around with a mask. When you’re in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet, but it’s not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is. And, often, there are unintended consequences — people keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face.” Anthony Fauci

                              So he didn't say DON'T wear but rather they were effectively useless

                              I'm always still in trouble again
