Jerome Corsi, InfoWars retract Seth Rich story
Corsi Nation ^ | March 4, 2019 | Jerome Corsi

Posted on 03/04/2019 8:16:40 PM PST by Taipei

SETH RICH - RETRACTION Published: 04 March 2019

On March 5, 2018, Infowars published an article by Dr. Jerome Corsi titled Anti-Trump Left Tries to Revive Dying ‘Russia’ Narrative by Blaming Roger Stone. In that article, Dr. Corsi alleged that Seth Rich and his brother, Aaron Rich, were involved in downloading and leaking emails from the DNC to WikiLeaks.

Dr. Corsi acknowledges that his allegations were not based upon any independent factual knowledge regarding Seth or Aaron Rich. Instead, Dr. Corsi relied primarily on, and quoted from, a column by Adm. James Lyons (Ret.) that was published in the Washington Times on March 2, 2018, but was retracted on September 30, 2018. (The Washington Times’ retraction is available here.)

It was not Dr. Corsi’s intent to rely upon inaccurate information, or to cause any suffering to Mr. Rich’s family. To that end, Dr. Corsi retracts the article and apologizes to the Rich family.

Admiral Lyons has not retracted his story. He died December 12, 2018.

Assange basically did say so. However, he did it in a interview in Europe that wasn’t done in English. He described Seth Rich. People turned the translation to, maybe Seth Rich, and then the liberal media said no evidence it was Seth Rich. Powerful people don’t want the truth, and neither does the family.

Corsi is a coward. And really fat.

Maybe Infowars isn’t totally reliable but at least they make people think and be critical of the slop that is spilled by the fake news.

It was alwys stupid to presume that file timestamps “prove” that the files were copied to a thumb drive and not downloaded across the internet. First, because files that are stolen are usually zipped before downloading which preserves the timestamps of the local copying. Second because the speeds people say are impossible are easily doable.

Bill Binney differs with you. He’s a former IT architect at the NSA.

“The Washington Times apologizes to Mr. Rich and his family. All online copies of the Column have been deleted and all online content referencing the Column has been deleted to the extent within The Washington Times’ control. “

I thought that was Winston Smith’s job.

The death of Antonin Scalia, a sitting SCOTUS judge, had no investigation and the family “stopped” any autopsy.

It was a hit ordered by hussein to eliminate the leading Constitutionalist and get another communist on SCOTUS

But...but...the retraction is in the first sentence of his Wkipedia page. (Disgusting but true. Just ,when you think the left can't go any lower they surprise you.)

(Also, it was speculation on my part but good find on your part)

Only Julian Assange knows for sure.

And that’s why he’s hiding in the Ecuadoran Embassy..................

... though, that he DIDN'T get them from Russia - so he DOES say when someone isn't a source.

I think he would only do that when it's a general source not a specific individual. To begin denying that person x or person y was a source would be participating in someone's fishing expedition. Something I don't think Assange would engage in.
