Butowsky sends an email to Fox News producers and hosts coaching them on how to frame the Rich story, according to the lawsuit. Recipients included Fox & Friends hosts, Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt and Brian Kilmeade, among others. "I'm actually the one who's been putting this together but as you know, I keep my name out of things because I have no credibility," Butowsky wrote, as reflected in the Wheeler suit. "One of the big conclusions we need to draw from this is that the Russians did not hack our computer systems and ste[a]l emails and there was no collusion" between "Trump and the Russians." The night before the story ran and the day of the story itself, Butowsky coached Wheeler on what to say on the air: "[T]he narrative in the interviews you might use is that you and [Fox News reporter Malia Zimmerman's] work prove that the Russians didn't hack into the DNC and steal the emails and impact our elections." In another text; "If you can, try to highlight this puts the Russian hacking story to rest."

Quite the timing on the Seth Rich story

Fox News' story, which took flight online and ran in segments across major shows, breathed fresh life into the rumors. Fox reported that the leaks came from inside the party, and not from hackers linked to Russia - despite the conclusions of the nation's most senior intelligence officials. The network suggested Democrats might have been connected to Rich's death and that a cover-up had thwarted the official investigation The network cited an unnamed FBI official. And the report relied heavily on Rod Wheeler, a former police detective, hired months earlier on behalf of the Riches by Ed Butowsky These developments took place during growing public concerns over a federal investigation into the Trump camp's possible collusion with the Russian government during the campaign. The allegations have since touched on the presidents son and son-in-law, his former campaign manager, his attorney general and his first national security adviser, who resigned as a result. The question of Rich's death took on greater urgency for Butowsky after Trump fired FBI Director James Comey in early May. Comey had been overseeing the Russia investigation. The story ran just a week later.

President Trump fabricating a story about Seth Rich

3. To lend support to this shift the blame theory, Zimmerman, with the knowledge and support of Butowsky, fabricated two quotations and attributed them to Mr. Wheeler: “My investigation up to this point shows there was some degree of email exchange between Seth Rich and Wikileaks,' said Wheeler." My investigation Democratic National Committee or Clinton team is blocking the murder investigation from going forward,' Wheeler said. That is unfortunate. Seth Rich's murder is unsolved as a result of that. the DC gove 4. Mr. Wheeler - who was the only named source quoted in the article -did not make these statements. According to Butowsky, the statements were falsely attributed to Mr. Wheeler because that is the way the President wanted the article.

SETHRICH WASA HERO I KNOW THAT SETH RICH WAS INVOLVED IN THE DNC LEAK I know this because in late 2014 a person contacted me about helping me to start a branch of the Internet Party in the United States. He called himself Panda. I now know that Panda was Seth Rich. Panda advised me that he was working on voter analytics tools and other technologies that the Internet Party may find helpful I communicated with Panda on a number of topics including corruption and the influence of corporate money i n politics. He wanted to change that from the inside. I was referring to what I knew when I did an interview with Bloomberg in New Zealand in May 2015. In that interview I hinted that Julian Assange and Wikileaks would release information about Hillary Clinton in the upcoming election. The Rich family has reached out to me to ask that l be sensitive to their loss in my public comments. That request is entirely reasonable I have consulted with my lawyers.
