Lawsuit Outs Reporter Ellen Ratner as Source for Seth Rich Information

Businessman Ed Butowsky filed a lawsuit on Monday that outed FOX News reporter Ellen Ratner was his source for the Seth Rich information.

This comes after Michael Isikoff’s report last week that labeled Butowsky as a Russian source.

Ed told The Gateway Pundit today that Ellen Ratner lied to Isikoff. Ed provided The Gateway Pundit with a copy of his email with Ratner.

Butowsky added that he spoke with Isikoff off the record and he broke his trust by contacting Ratner.

Butowsky told The Gateway Pundit that after last week’s report he was forced to speak out. Ed also says he has more evidence that Ratner was his source on the Seth Rich information.

Butowsky claims Ratner gathered the information on Seth Rich after contact with Wikileaks officials. The Gateway Pundit has not confirmed that information.

Isikoff is already tied to the Trump-Russia collusion scandal after reporting on the junk dossier in his Yahoo report in 2016. The deep state leaked the info specifically to Isikoff who they knew to be a friendly reporter.

So now the news media will start mentioning the Seth Rich murder again? Taking about it was banned, even Hannity on Fox, was not allowed to talk about it. Let me get this straignt, Seth Rich (D IT guy) was responsible for the DNC data leaks (not Russia) and he was murdered a few days after the leaks happened, his murder has never been solved.... A real free press would be attempting to connect the dots.

Well now we have a new term: “Seth Rich information”? It has never been allowed to be called that before. This implies that it was purloined by Rich, an accusation that has been toxic, anathema, to date. Clearly a piece of spin. By whom? One has to wonder if this is a deliberately set “mystery bomb” planted by the FBI. I myself am 100% equivocal as to whether the “Seth Rich information” found its way into Assanges’ hands via Rich or the Awans. I have no way of knowing, don’t know, don’t see how we might ever know. It could be careless or deliberate handling by either. The FBI, having utterly and in some respects, gleefully failed to examine the DNC server, is absolutely at fault if not complicit in this “not knowing” but perhaps that is quite deliberate.

GPundit delivered a word salad. Guess I read too fast. What the heck? So, how is Ishikof the immediate catalyst for forcing ED B. to come forward at.this.time? Why Now comes Ed B.? Did Michael Ishikof write something recently, prompting the current motivation to out Ellen Rattner, as Ed B.’s source? I mean, Assange was our source as well. We all saw Assange on HANNITY (ions ago) alluding to Seth Richards as the Assange/Wikileaks source, for the trove of DNC revelations. The parents (the Richards’) were oddly incurious and too silent about the strange and incriminating circumstances of their son’s murder. They knew the wrong people were involved, and they perpetuated the Russia myth. The wrong people were of the Richards’ own political party— the DEMOCRATS. The parents were so defensive over Trump reaping a benefit from outing the Truth, they were willing to see their son’s murder facts deep-sixed.
