Businessman Ed Butowsky filed a lawsuit on Monday that outed FOX News reporter Ellen Ratner was his source for the Seth Rich information.
This comes after Michael Isikoff’s report last week that labeled Butowsky as a Russian source.
Ed told The Gateway Pundit today that Ellen Ratner lied to Isikoff. Ed provided The Gateway Pundit with a copy of his email with Ratner.
Butowsky added that he spoke with Isikoff off the record and he broke his trust by contacting Ratner.
Butowsky told The Gateway Pundit that after last week’s report he was forced to speak out. Ed also says he has more evidence that Ratner was his source on the Seth Rich information.
Butowsky claims Ratner gathered the information on Seth Rich after contact with Wikileaks officials. The Gateway Pundit has not confirmed that information.
Isikoff is already tied to the Trump-Russia collusion scandal after reporting on the junk dossier in his Yahoo report in 2016. The deep state leaked the info specifically to Isikoff who they knew to be a friendly reporter.

What about this?
Seth Rich was the Wikileak.
They plugged.
Russia,Russia,Russia was to cover that up.

Sometimes investigators must search in landfills to solve crimes.
Just because the MSM is not covering this does not mean it is garbage?
Is there anything false in the article?
He also made a reference to "Wet Works".
[ Why would anyone trust anything associated with Isikoff? ]
That’s for sure. He’s a main player in the the scam.
The key word being "possibility".
Forgot about that, wasn't that from one of Podesta's hacked emails?
“Is there anything false in the article? “
Is there anything that’s true?
GUILTY!
Is there anything new in the article?
I thought that was awful, but another poster, I forget who, said his family may have been threatened, FWIW.
I thought it was their best men. Of course, now that the road is leading to Ellen Ratner, maybe you need their Pest men (LOL).
Just now figuring that out?
This whole tweet storm over The Squad is about Trump forcing the democRATS to either side with or come out against these four women. It's deliberate set-up to force their hand.
Trump doesn't do things willy-nilly like the MSM complains he does.
He tweets to communicate directly to his supporters instead of having his message filtered through the biased sieve that is the MSM.
But he also tweets to for strategic and tactical reasons. He forces the opposition to take sides they might not normally take because, heaven forbid, they don't want to appear to be agreeing with Trump. So they step right into the cow pies he has set for them on the battlefield.
He is a master at this technique.
Just now figuring that out?
And so often the average joe only sees a fleeting headline and the story disappears. But once Trump tweets about it, they have to talk about it.
And I like to see it this way: Trump is not “tweeting”. He’s communicating directly with the people. And this allows him to force the vernacular beyond the lowly press conference.
Those suffering mental illness are sometimes very “mean”.
LOL.... I did not know she was lesbian and was born and lives in Cleveland OH...
I just did a search on her...and NO WHERE can i find her age? does anyone know?
I haven’t seen her on FOX NEWS in a long, long time...but she has always been liberal and a bit queer...
Now I understand why !!!!!!!!!
Roger that.
That Seth Richards parents were threatened is plausible, and Ed’s interview, if it exists, with them bears out their knowledge that their son was the “hacker”, but they did not want to be responsible for Trump benefiting from that truth coming out.
Ed B. is Coming out now, seems to be related to something recent about Michael Ishikof, according to Gateway Pundit, but he doesn’t explain it or link to anything recent.
(Prolly Justice Department is hot on Ed’s trail, so he steps up and outs Rattner and the email exchanges for his cover..). Horrible reporting by Hoft.
You started it by categorically denouncing the article and source. The onus is thus on you to cite its errors.
More and more, I wonder what qualifies as a legitimate source with entities like you: The New York Times? The Washington Post?
I do not entirely trust any source anywhere - especially including substance-lacking comments like yours on this forum, which I have seen too often, from you and others.
(By the bye, I have been researching Ed Butowski off and on for the better part of two years. As far as I can tell, his existence as a living human being, his status as a businessman in Texas, and his involvement in the aftermath of the Seth Rich death, are all true. That makes three things right there.)
