Jerome Corsi is an author who can tactfully and credibly be identified as a conspiracy theorist.

He’s the ex – Washington bureau chief for InfoWars, and he has published for various other conservative-leaning conspiracy sites, like Human Events and WorldNetDaily.

On Monday, Corsi officially retracted a year-old account he published for InfoWars about Seth Rich, the murdered Democratic National Committee staffer who Corsi and others have inaccurately stated was murdered for leaking DNC emails to WikiLeaks.

Right now, after a second glance at his most recent publication and a active series of Twitter interactions with Corsi, some questions about what, exactly, he has retracted arose.

Corsi is most widely known for being in a tiny bit of a legal challenge, having stated in November that he thought Special Counsel Robert Mueller was on the verge of indicting him.

That has not occurred yet, but Mueller’s team is without a doubt probing Corsi’s interactions with Roger Stone.

Corsi has stated that he informed a federal grand jury that he assisted Stone craft an alternate reason for a tweet in which Stone seemed to foresee the release of the DNC emails prior to WikiLeaks putting them out.

Corsi has also been an passionate participant in the Seth Rich account; while Rich’s 2016 homicide has never been resolved, there is exactly no proof to suggest what Corsi and many others have reported, which is that he was WikiLeaks’ source.

(Furthermore, Russian intelligence officers were indicted by the Special Counsel’s office in July 2018 and charged of giving hijacked DNC and Hillary Clinton emails to WikiLeaks.)

The Rich family has battled back hard in opposition to folks who have inaccurately stated that Seth was the DNC leaker.

Among other things, the loved ones sued Fox News over its coverage on Rich; the suit was terminated, though the loved ones are appealing the judgement.

As a stand alone, Aaron Rich, Seth’s brother, sued the very right-wing, commonly suspicious Washington Times, which also accused Aaron himself of having took part in leaking the DNC emails.

The Washington Times rolled away that account last September as component of negotiating Aaron’s suit.

Corsi’s retraction, currently live on InfoWars, states:

On March 5, 2018, Infowars published an article by Dr. Jerome Corsi titled Anti-Trump Left Tries to Revive Dying ‘Russia’ Narrative by Blaming Roger Stone. In that article, Dr. Corsi alleged that Seth Rich and his brother, Aaron Rich, were involved in downloading and leaking emails from the DNC to WikiLeaks.

Dr. Corsi acknowledges that his allegations were not based upon any independent factual knowledge regarding Seth or Aaron Rich. Instead, Dr. Corsi relied primarily on, and quoted from, a column by Adm. James Lyons (Ret.) that was published in the Washington Times on March 2, 2018, but was retracted on September 30, 2018. (The Washington Times’ retraction is available here.)

It was not Dr. Corsi’s intent to rely upon inaccurate information, or to cause any suffering to Mr. Rich’s family. To that end, Dr. Corsi retracts the article and apologizes to the Rich family.

In a announcement to Rolling Stone, Aaron Rich explained to the magazine, in part, “I acknowledge the apology of Dr. Jerome Corsi for his false accusations about me, my late brother and my family, and I look forward to my day in court against others who have made similar false statements.”

But Corsi is not, in truth, retracting the false statements he made about Seth, based on Corsi himself.

On Twitter, he has been at pains to point out, over and over, that he certainly is not retracting any other portion of his Seth Rich coverage.

That is also the debate he makes in his current publication, Killing the Deep State.

I dragged out my copy this morning to verify what he’d stated about Seth Rich, and if he mentioned the Washington Times. In Chapter 11, Corsi publishes that Rich is the individual “most likely” to have ripped off the DNC emails “from the inside, leaking copies to Julian Assange at WikiLeaks.

The details for that chapter do not contain the Washington Times; as far as I can tell, there is no immediate citation at all for that claim.

When it was pointed out on Twitter, Corsi – potentially unwisely – quoted a tweet, to prove that yes, he’s not retracting that fact.

Corsi was asked what, exactly, he’s retracting.

When he did not reply, It was questioned if he intended to retract only the part inaccurately claiming that Aaron Rich took part in the supposed “leak.”

For a second time, he quoted a tweet, incorporating, “Good analysis.”

The response was that no one wasn’t “analyzing,” but actively inquiring for comment.

While Corsi didn’t respond further, it appears relatively safe to claim that, based upon the preponderance of proof, that he means to keep on making false claims about Seth Rich, while walking back his statements about Rich’s brother just enough not to get sued.

The Rich family has stated continuously that the baseless rumours about Seth and his murder has profoundly tormented them. In May of 2017, his parents, Joel and Mary, composed an op-ed for the Washington Post, pleading folks to stop “politicizing” Rich’s death, and adding, “There are people who are using our beloved Seth’s memory and legacy for their own political goals, and they are using your outrage to perpetuate our nightmare.” And obviously, some of those folks truly cannot manage to stop.
