"The White House worked with Fox News and a wealthy Republican donor to push a story about the murder of Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich, according to an explosive lawsuit filed Tuesday.

The story was pushed in an attempt to discredit the US intelligence community's determination that Russia hacked the Democratic National Committee and obtained the emails released by Wikileaks, the lawsuit said.

The plaintiff is Rod Wheeler, a Fox News contributor and former homicide detective hired to investigate Rich's death, who alleges that he was misquoted as part of the effort to put the story together. "

And the plot thickens even further. But hey, so much for "fair and balanced" Fox news, right?

It's an interesting development, but lawsuits regularly overstate things. But this will at least get news organizations on the story and if there is actually something there, then we'll start to hear more about it. Until then, it gets a "meh" from me.

I can't wait for Donny to lecture us again about Fake News in a Airplane Hanger full of cheering supporters.

...yes. Right after he tells us a little bit more about how his top people are finding all sorts of interesting things about Obama's real Kenyan birth certificate.
