Interesting thought. I met him once and had a surprisingly long political discussion with him off the cuff. He seemed a little too open and honest in his feelings that day with me to be a covert agent, but he is often right in the middle of things so you may be right. Do you have any additional sources? Planning on making my own searches as well now, thanks.
Look at it this way Christopher Steele was directed to leak to the press and he chose to eakit to Isikoff. This isn’t proof in itself I realize but combine that with Operation Mockingbird being out there and Isikoff having been involved with the spiked Lewinsky story. Isikoff isn’t looking like an independent journalist to me, but more like an agent of the DNC.
