Ellen Nakashima is a DNC go-to reporter who appeared early on in the DNC's 'hacking'... to promote the 'Russians did it' storyline, according to Ritter [who has his own problematic associations.]
hmmm.... At first the DNC tried to get the FBI to make the attribution call, figuring that it would garner more attention coming from the US government. But when the FBI wanted full access to the DNC server so that it could conduct a full forensic investigation, the DNC balked. Instead, after meeting with Alperovitch and Henry, the DNC and CrowdStrike devised a strategy to take the case to the public themselves. Alperovitch prepared a formal technical report that singled out the Russians for attribution. When it was ready, the DNC invited in a reporter from the Washington Post named Ellen Nakashima, who was given exclusive access to senior DNC and CrowdStrike personnel for an above-the-fold, front-page article. ----- Dumbstruck: A Homefront Intelligence Report on How America Was Conned About the DNC Hack Medium ^ | 8/30/2017 | Scott Ritter , https://medium.com/homefront-rising/dumbstruck-how-crowdstrike-conned-america-on-the-hack-of-the-dnc-ecfa522ff44f
If Ritter is right here this is probably a DNC planted storyline ...again.
