Sean Hannity and Lou Dobbs to be deposed in Seth Rich lawsuit: report
The Hill ^ | 09 14 2020 | Rebecca Klar

Fox News host Sean Hannity and Fox Business host Lou Dobbs are expected to be deposed in late October over Fox’s reporting about the murder of Democratic National Committee (DNC) staffer Seth Rich, the Daily Beast reported Monday.

Hannity, Dobbs and other Fox staffers will reportedly be deposed as part of an emotional distress lawsuit that Rich’s parents, Joel and Mary Rich, filed against Fox, Fox News reporter Malia Zimmerman and former Fox News guest Ed Butowsky. The deposition schedule was revealed in a Thursday court filing made by the Rich family, according to the Daily Beast.

Hannity’s deposition in the case is scheduled for Oct. 30, and Dobb’s is scheduled for Oct. 7, according to the Daily Beast.

Seth Rich was killed in 2016 in what Washington, D.C., police called a botched robbery. His parents contend in the lawsuit that Fox News promoted dangerous conspiracy theories that implied that Rich gave internal DNC emails to WikiLeaks during that year's presidential race.

Watch this interview with the Seth Rich family.

It always looked to me as if the son was trying not to laugh and someone off camera told him to cut it out.

The parents are also remarkably composed considering their son was just murdered.

Will Hannity keep interrupting the lawyer deposing him?

They reported on WikiLeaks hem-hawing and offering a reward.

Are they emotionally distressed about their son's death? Are they upset his death seems to already be considered a cold case?

The conspiracy theory has been debunked repeatedly by both former special counsel Robert Mueller and the Senate Intelligence Committee, which found that Russian hackers were behind the theft of emails and publication by WikiLeaks, the Daily Beast noted.

This is complete disinformation. Crowdstrike testified in classified hearings that they had no evidence the DNC emails that appeared on Wikileaks were transferred over the internet from the DNC server. The truth lies with the FBI forensic report on Seth Rich's laptop which allegedly contained DNC documents that had been emailed to a Wikileaks contact. Until this is made public the story remains a mystery.

“Are they emotionally distressed about their son’s death? “

They do not look emotionally distress at all! Most of the time they lectured about their son death. Strange behavior!

Hannity can depose himself, like he always interviews himself.

If what you say is accurate, then Hannity and Dobbs will have their lawyers demand that they get the FBI reports on the Rich and DNC emails, etc. Otherwise, all they will say is that a confidential sources or open source told us about this theory.

Two in the back is unusual for a street robbery in DC. Most of the time people are shot in the chest, head and stomach. That’s the “DC Way”.

I have always said there was something very wrong with that interview.....the brother trying not to laugh out loud, and the family not showing any emotion....Donna Brazile was more SCARED by his “death”......is he REALLY dead?

Discovery is a useful tool.

I would ask if any remuneration was realized from the death of their son?

My thoughts exactly. The lawyers for FoxNews should require the bank records of the robotlike parents.
