The family of slain Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich filed a lawsuit on Tuesday against Fox News, one of the network's reporters, and a wealthy Texas businessman over their roles in the publication of a baseless conspiracy theory about Rich's 2016 death.

The lawsuit, filed in US District Court for the Southern District of New York, seeks compensation for "mental anguish and emotional distress, emotional pain and suffering, and any other physical and mental injuries."

“Didn’t the DIMs pay-off the Kopechne family?”

Don’t think so. Just the Kennedy family.

[NEMDF]

Just WOW. This is unbelievable. Hopefully, it will lead to a full investigation, and reveal the truth. I have to think that Sean Hannity is not going to take this quietly. I wonder if Assange will finally reveal...

[Faith Presses On]

I would go with afraid first, delusional second.

[Faith Presses On]

Or they’re just trying to force some out of court settlement.

[ScottinVA]

Sounds like the family has been contacted by DNC thugs with instructions.

>>Media has to fight this suit to death, or thousands of these will tank the industry.<<

Damn!

Talk about ambivalence!

baseless conspiracy theory

When CNN says it is true--you can be sure it is a baseless conspiracy theory.

When CNN says it is a baseless conspiracy theory, you can be sure it is true!

Maybe a lot will come out in court about this “ baseless conspiracy theory”

[Harpotoo]

Any idiot knows Mark was slain by the DNC beacuse he was the hacker!

[Harpotoo]

Whhooopss , meant Seth!

"Big mistake if they want to keep this covered up."

Exactly. Whatever anyone thinks of the US legal system, it generally allows educated, sober, adults to present "facts", in a public environment. This means that information other than the media approved meme, will be told. It will be difficult to ignore.

Maybe it’s a tactic to get to the truth.
Forces legal documentation & investigation of facts, which can then be used to subject others to prosecution.

Sometimes apparently unintended consequences are intended.

Dedicated?

Seth was the source of incalculable loss of political face and family shame. The truth can never be outed. The truth must be fought to the bitter end by the progressive establishment

[b4its2late]

They do. Something is off.

[gr8eman]

It will be interesting to see the team of lawyers the Rich family “retains”!

[Steven W.]

JA recently got diplomatic immunity ... then he changed his Twitter icon to an hourglass ;)

The attorney now in the picture comes from ... Chicago, of course.

Leonard A. Gail is a partner with Massey & Gail.

He is also a trustee for Steans Family Foundation

[Alas Babylon!]

CNN’s entire news narrative is a baseless conspiracy theory!

[JoeRed]

Shouldn’t they be more concerned with finding the “real” killer than filing a frivolous lawsuit?

[Jack Black]

This is part of a coordinated attack. Gateway Pundit, Alex Jones and a couple others were also served with papers for their coverage of the Unite the Right march. At issue is they identified a State Dept. Counter-protester as such, which caused speculation about his involvement in the fatal accident.

The lawyer suing works at Mueller’s firm. Small world, eh?

[gr8eman]

Discovery should involve the police who responded and the coroner. Could get interesting, as who originally said it was a robbery? Most cops know the difference between a hit job and a robbery. Like to see those people on the stand!
