Ed Butowsky was told by Ellen Ratner that Seth Rich was the one who leaked the DNC emails.
She publicly claims here how Julian Assange told her that he received the emails from an "inside source" or someone close to the campaign.
Here is Assange hinting very strongly that Seth Rich was the leaker or his source for the emails.
Ed Butowsky claims that Ratner told him personally that Assange admitted that it was Seth Rich who leaked him the DNC emails.
He says that he has kept an email where Ratner candidly makes this very claim to him about Seth Rich being the leaker.
Ellen has recanted and claimed that she never told Butowsky about who the leaker was.
So Butowsky is now suing Ratner, so I assume that more of this case will come to light and Ratner may well be forced to tell the truth.
This is a very detailed and quite thorough interview of Butowsky by a journalist that I admire and respect.
Butowsky does come off as a tiny bit odd but he seems very lucid and speaks in a matter of fact way that is easy to understand. I think he explains his position quite succinctly and quite clearly.
Yahoo News has no idea what they are typing, reporting or dreaming up. Their assertion that Russia is somehow behind this is pure fiction & based on nonsense.
I can tell you definitively that Ratner and Assange know each other quite well professionally speaking... she is very well liked and trusted as a journalist. She is a likeable person who makes friends easy... she no doubt charmed Assange and he most likely did spill the beans off "off the record" with who leaked him the DNC emails.
But whether Ed Butowsky is telling the truth or not we will see (with the outcome of his case against Ratner).
Butowsky feels that he has a case against Ratner so I for one, will be interested to see how the it turns out.
A settlement out-of-court would be a real bummer IMHO.
