Slain DNC Staffer Seth Rich’s Family Sues Fox News
The family of slain Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich is suing Fox News, one of its reporters, and a cable-network guest over a 2017 story that Fox News ran on its website. The article was later retracted because it was largely based on a conspiracy theory alleging that Rich, who was fatally shot in Washington, D.C., in 2016, could have been involved in a leak of hacked DNC emails.
The lawsuit accuses reporter Malia Zimmerman and Ed Butowsky of “aid[ing] and abett[ing] the intentional infliction of emotional distress” and trying to paint Rich as a “criminal and traitor to the United States.”
