Serious question: how do you know it's "bogus"? There's no evidence either way. For all we know the guy could have been Assange's source, which would explain the raging hard-on the current administration has for extraditing Assange.

It was bogus because they quoted an FBI source saying evidence was found on Seth Rich's laptop indicated that he sent DNC emails to Wikileaks. They retracted the story after an outcry, and IIRC FBI denied it. That didn't stop Hannity from hammering the false story for a week till Seth's parents begged him. Two and half years later there is no link whatsoever. They literally just made it up to fool their low information audience, and apparently it worked so well that I am seeing HN'ers regurgitate this bullshit with zero indication that Seth even had access to all DNC emails.

Maddow and Don are opinion. Fox is propaganda. Do not wait for an answer.

I did answer with proof. Sad to see purveyors and believers of actual fake news on this site.

Yes, you answered. Hannity has been beating dead horse for one week. Progressive media are peddling Russia collusion for years. Walls are still closing in. Tulsi is a Russian asset with no proof whatsoever! All networks are biased, but some are way more biased to the point of insanity.

There is a difference between being biased and outright making up falsehoods with fake facts like the Seth Rich story. Both are bad but the latter is much worse.
