It's not racist against white people, only protected classes. Check your white privilege butter boy.

This is why you Trumpsters hated Obama so much. But he is so much smarter than Trump it's laughable.

What's weird is the fact that wheeler was the one pushing the story.

Is this suit being used to keep Seth Rich in the news and get some evidence exposed in discovery?

This is a mildly interesting story, but when you desperately try to link Trump, as per usual, you look like a hack.

The comms director meets with a journalist naturally means Trump penned the article himself.

His view is that since he had expressed wanting a White House job, he felt pressured to deliver the goods on this story. In the end, he felt he was just used as a corroborating source to a story he knew was sketchy at best.

Wait, so you're saying that having the story at the top of every show on Fox news that day and on many segments for weeks wasn't "pushing" it? (See Hannity)
I don't watch Fox News nor listen to Hannity so you'll have to fill me in on what's been reported on that network.

the story that CNN had to retract was only online and wasn't even really mentioned on the air.
So now you've changed the "explosive" story your title claims this is to just another attempt by you to divert attention away from CNN's fake news history to say, "See! Fox News does it, too!"????

THAT'S the "explosive" news this thread is claiming?

I didn't link anything but the article.

The suit itself implicates the Trump admin (confirmed) and maybe Trump himself (hearsay as of now).

Seriously though...Wheeler was the guy pushing the story. The suit makes no sense unless he's trying to get the courts the help force D.C. PD evidence in discovery and blow this case wide open.

GumboPot, just read the story. It's not hard.

Wheeler says he felt pressured to push out the story which included quotes he knew were not real.

Was this not your commentary?

This is bad for Trump and Fox News. After calling the MSM fake news, Fox News and the Trump Admin are the real pushers of Fake News.

He is suing Fox for letting him push what he calls a fake story so he could get a WH job? I hope that is his argument and Fox sues the piss out of him.

Is he just a black Brian Williams?

Read your thread's title again, dumbass. Your title is a lie.

I'm not surprised you resort to lies. Typical.

Or, perhaps, not everyone who disagrees with you falls into the category of "redneck Fox News disciples". Perhaps rational people say "this is nothing" every single day because none of these stories ever mean anything, or amount to anything other than innunendo. The 24 hr news cycle survives on making trivial things BREAKING NEWS. I'm sorry there is a portion of us who see directly through that
