Corsi retracted a column parroting the baseless conspiracy that Rich and his brother hacked the DNC in 2016

WASHINGTON – The family of Seth Rich, the Democratic National Committee staffer whose unsolved murder in 2016 spawned a wave of conspiracy theories, has notched another legal victory against the proponents of baseless theories about Rich.

In his column, Corsi promoted a theory that the DNC hack — a crime for which Special Counsel Robert Mueller later indicted 12 Russian intelligence officers — was an “inside job” by Rich.

Corsi’s retraction and apology is the second victory for the Rich family as they’ve pursued legal action against people who have spread conspiracy theories about Seth and Aaron Rich. The Washington Times‘ apology was the first since the Rich family filed lawsuits against various individuals and media companies, including Fox, for spreading unfounded claims about the brothers.

In March 2018, Joel and Mary Rich, Seth’s parents, sued Fox, a Fox News reporter and a former Fox guest alleging intentional infliction of emotional distress for spreading the conspiracies about Seth and WikiLeaks. The Riches’ complaint was dismissed last August in federal district court in New York and is now on appeal.
