[FULL TITLE] Journalist Describes How Fusion GPS Smeared Him as a 'Pedophile,' 'Extortionist' and 'Drug Trafficker'

The shady, liberal opposition research firm behind the discredited anti-Trump dossier uses smear tactics and intimidation to discredit people who go against its clients, a London-based Venezuelan journalist told Fox News Thursday.

In congressional testimony as well, Alek Boyd said Fusion GPS labeled him a “pedophile,” “extortionist” and “drug trafficker” after he criticized Derwick Associates, one of its clients.

“I believe that Fusion GPS’s business is to do basically whatever the paymasters tell them to do,” Boyd said in his first American TV interview. “They are particularly good at spreading misinformation, disinformation and smears.”

The journalist's testimony comes as a federal judge denied the firm's request to quash a congressional subpoena for their bank records.

Boyd said Fusion, which describes itself as a “strategic intelligence” outfit, targeted him after he reported on Derwick Associates, a crooked power company with close ties to the Venezuelan government. Derwick Associates allegedly sold faulty electric plants in Venezuela, and skimmed nearly a billion dollars from corrupt contracts with the late Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez.

I do wish the American people understand to what degree they are nipple sucking on the teat of propaganda. Even if you are a dyed in the wool leftist, you should know the lies you’re being fed and find your own truth.

Why am I thinking a connection between Van Jones and Derwick Associates?
Methodology is the same and both have Venezuela interests

How nearfetched!
Thanks E. Pluribus Unum.
