Former Fusion GPS Employee Shreds Firm’s Work On Paul Manafort
The Daily Caller ^ | 09/18/2018 | Chuck Ross

Graham Stack, a freelance journalist hired by Fusion GPS, says the opposition research firm was “almost completely wrong” about former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort.

Stack says Fusion GPS provided most of the research cited by the media that suggested Manafort was a Kremlin stooge.

Stack says he “shares the blame” for pushing the research, which he now says is part of a false narrative.

A former contractor for Fusion GPS claims the opposition research firm got its investigation of former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort “almost completely wrong.”

Graham Stack, who was hired by Fusion GPS in July 2016, writes in the Kyiv Post that he “share[s] the blame” for creating what he now says is a false narrative that Manafort worked for the Ukrainian government to advance a pro-Russia agenda.

“There have been scores of media articles about Manafort — and 90 percent regurgitate the simplistic narrative of Manafort as a Kremlin trojan horse,” Stack wrote at the Kyiv Post.

“This narrative was developed by Washington commercial intelligence firm Fusion GPS in 2016, as part of their now famous dossier on Trump, distributed widely among major media outlets,” Stack continued.

He waited until Manafort had pled guilty to admit this.

I suppose he is trying to restore his credibility.

Maybe Manafort can rescind his plea.

They didn’t “get it wrong.” They fabricated it, a work of fiction dressed up to masquerade as “intelligence.”
