“TRUMP PRESSURES REPORTERS TO DO THEIR JOB”
There... fixed it.
The DRUMPH doesn't ask, he pressures
Fake news about fake news?
Yep! All we ever want is a detective, or ex- detective, who is easily manipulated! I like Rod Wheeler, so I choose to believe this story is total BS!
I have read the linked article and it does not correspond to the headline. The headline says that Trump pressured Fox News. The article says that Butkowsky, who is a Trump supporter but not part of the Administration, pressured Wheeler to get the story onto Fox. Also alleged to be involved (by making up two quotes) is Fox reporter Malia Zimmerman. Obviously, she is too is not part of the Administration. Pressuring Wheeler, who made appearances on Fox, is described as pressuring Fox itself. That is absurd. BTW, if the President has such sway over Fox News, why is Anderson Cooper on the air every day hammering him?
Note also that is in part a race discrimination lawsuit, with Wheeler claiming that Fox discriminated against him on account of his skin color. I tend to think this is just another hustle for cash by a guy who had a failed few minutes of celebrity.
The bigger question is: Who pressured CNN, MSNBC, WaPo, NYT, etc. to NOT run the story? And why?
Since very little has been said about the case, perhaps the story is yet to be complete.
Have all the i’s been dotted and the t’s crossed in the investigation? Seems Seth would have been a prime target for DNC inclining haters egged on by the MSM.
The libs on the morning show at KFI are actually talking about this. That Trump told Hannity how to run the story. And they are mocking that Seth Rich was “ murdered.” Um.... He was.
Nothing about the lawsuit in his tweets. Strange!?
?????
Please explain. Thanks.
This is weird. Isn’t Wheeler the guy who was hired by the family to INVESTIGATE the lawsuit? Who is under a gag order?
Yawn
This is a good development, imo. It forces more coverage of the Rich assassination. And, the Awan brothers spy ring (if you consider Wheeler’s July 26th tweet).
So it was a “Fake Story” says who?
The case remains “unsolved” So who in the press is to say what is fake and what is reality?
If true, lol.
5.56mm
Just talked with Jack Posobiec who has really been on top of this. As I thought . . .
This is an effort by Wheeler to force the Seth Rich murder into the public.
Wait, you can sue someone for news? Can I sue CNN for giving us fake news?
9/2016: Jack Burkman offers pro bono PR services to family
10/7/2016: Obama officially blames the Russians for the DNC hack
11/2016: Burkman does a news conference w/family
1/2017: he begins an ad campaign for info on killer
2/2017: Burkman then blames those busy Russians for Seth’s murder (Imran Awan spy ring discovered at this time- hmmm)
After this, the family ‘fires’ him, but he soldiers on:
3/2017: Burkman creates a group called “The Profiling Project” made up of GeoWash University forensic students; they are to study the case and find the killer.
Their conclusion: the “conspiracy theories” were all wrong- Seth was the victim of a SERIAL KILLER!
3/2017: Meanwhile back on earth, Seth’s brother starts a GoFundMe page to raise 200K for a PI.
But instead, Ed Butowsky-a FOX contributor- recommends the family hire another FOX friend- Rod Wheeler- to investigate. Family couldn’t pay him, so Butowsky covered his expenses (not sure if family knew about that $$$)
5/2017: Wheeler investigates and tells a FOX affiliate that there is a definite “LINK” between Seth and Wikileaks.
Family then fires Wheeler and demands and receives an apology from FOX on air for running this story.
Just thought I would supply a bit of background on this case- I began writing it down because the Awan Spy Ring story, the Trump wiretapping story and the Traitor McCain Russian Pee-Pee POTUS Dossier are all happening at the same time—and of course, the glorious MAGA win!
Hmm, we can now tell Seth’s family he’s alive and well, huh. It must be more fake news that he was at the bar with Awan that night and the picture of them together must be photoshopped, right? Whew, then Awan & Co. and Debbie and the DNC and half of Congress and Hellary must be innocent of all that fake computer stuff. That’s a relief.
