Fox News has taken the striking step of retracting a story about murdered Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich, saying it did not meet the network's "high degree of editorial scrutiny."
"On May 16, a story was posted on the Fox News website on the investigation into the 2016 murder of DNC Staffer Seth Rich. The article was not initially subjected to the high degree of editorial scrutiny we require for all our reporting," the network said in a statement released Tuesday. "Upon appropriate review, the article was found not to meet those standards and has since been removed. We will continue to investigate this story and will provide updates as warranted."
Fox News was one of many right-leaning media outlets that floated unsubstantiated theories that Rich provided WikiLeaks internal DNC emails, and that he may have been killed in retribution. Rich was shot to death last July in Washington, D.C., in what police have investigated as a robbery gone wrong.
Rich's family blasted Fox News and other outlets for promoting unfounded versions of the story.
"It's sad but unsurprising that a group of media outlets who have repeatedly lied to the American people would try and manipulate the legacy of a murder victim in order to forward their own political agenda," a spokesman for the Rich family told Business Insider. "I think there is a special place in hell for people like that."

Word was that quite a few Fox staffers were disgusted about this.
Bet we don't hear many comments from the CNN-trashing righties, though.
Well, journalistic integrity is alive after all.

Hannity has always been synonymous w/ hackery. But something has happened to him w/ Trump; he has finally gone off the edge.
I used to be able to tune in just to get the "other perspective," but I literally can't watch him anymore. He's beyond hackery, beyond apologism, beyond shamelessness. He's a cartoon.

it's very strange. no robbery they called a robbery, no cameras ( and DC is covered by security cameras) of the incident
no desire by DC cops to open the investigation//
yet we're supposed to blindly believe the Russians did it -and yet the FBI didn't even review the malware used 1st hand

I don't get it. Are they saying that Seth Rich wasn't murdered?

The detective, Wheeler, named Donna Brazile as the high ranking DNC staffer who called the police and cut him off when she found out Wheeler was investigating.
The plot thickens. Murder is a crime, collusion not so much.
