How many fake news stories are they going to make abut the murder of Seth Rich. They are in a panic. But, why would Rod Wheeler do this? We seen exactly what Wheeler said, from his own mouth on video!

A new bombshell lawsuit filed Tuesday alleges the Trump administration encouraged Fox News to create a fake news story concerning the death of Seth Rich, the former Democratic National Convention staffer who was murdered in July 2016, in order to divert attention away from the Russia scandal. The now-retracted story, written by reporter Malia Zimmerman, had suggested Rich was in communication with Wikileaks, implying that he—not Russian hackers—was the source of DNC emails published by the site.
NPR reports the lawsuit was brought by Rod Wheeler, a former Washington DC detective and longtime paid Fox commentator, who was hired by Republican donor Ed Butowsky to investigate Rich’s murder. According to Wheeler, the network defamed him by knowingly fabricating quotes and attributing them to him in its story, which was titled “Seth Rich, slain DNC staffer, had contact with WikiLeaks, say multiple sources.”

If Pizzagate is fake news, then why did Awan's attorney, Chris Gowen, blame his client's problems on the "alt-right 'pizzagate' media"?
It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever to use the term "pizzagate" in defense of very serious charges against Awan. Remember, this guy was Bill Clinton's attorney - he isn't a shyster.
It only makes sense through the same lens as the MSM/DS tactic to accuse everyone of what you are guilty of - Russia collaboration; pissing hookers; etc.
The Wheeler angle is the exact same tactic. Accuse and attack.

Yes. Accuse the other of what they themselves are doing. That's one of their tactics.

I've gotten to the point where if I have to consume MSM, I just assume the truth is the complete opposite of what is being reported about 85% of the time.
