    This is a remarkable profile - and very delicate skewering - of Richard Spencer:
    https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine...kampf/524505/#

    Spencer is a leading alt rightist..ie white nationalist, white supremacist whose wife is Russian and who was very active in supporting Le Pen in France and Trump in the US...often quoted in Infowars and on Breitbart.com

    NOW a true fake news article is being pushed by Fox News, Russia Today, Sputnik, Infowars and Wikileaks

    Amazing that now right wing US media outlets are linked into white nationalists sites and into Russian propaganda outlets....

    .@FoxNews has turned into InfoWars, they just have more $ and can do more to cook up story and make it look & sound legit.

    https://www.buzzfeed.com/alexcampbel...AN51#.aqzg9n8Z

    Seth Rich "Investigator" never hired by family, works for @FoxNews.
    Fox pushing story.

    Story was produced in time to shift bad Trump news cycle?


    •Investigator works for Fox.
    •Was paid by Third party.
    •Pretended to speak for family yesterday.
    •Family statement is refuting Fox report.

    Right now there are 40 plus "alt right" twitter accounts meaning white nationalists pushing this story as an attempt to deflect from Trump dumping highly sensitive US intel on the Russians without any thought whatsoever....

    Now TASS is talking about Fox News story on Seth Rich, WikiLeaks and Clinton.
    Сетх Рич передал WikiLeaks материалы, скомпрометировавшие сторонников Хиллари Клинтон, сообщил Fox News

    "It's treated here as just another attack on our dear friend Trump" @michaeldweiss shares words of fmr. RUS diplomat

    In Russian the use of the term "dear friend" signals a far deeper friendship....and interesting comment by someone who still has deep connections in the Putin government....

    Note esp the Twitter-based targeted malware attack on 10K Pentagon employees in March 2017. Haven't seen this reported elsewhere.
