The investigative reporter who broke the first story based on allegations from Christopher Steele offered a surprising assessment of the former British spy’s infamous dossier, which alleges a vast conspiracy of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian government.
“Would you agree that a lot of what’s in the Steele dossier has been somewhat vindicated?” Mediaite columnist John Ziegler asked Michael Isikoff, a co-author of the book “Russian Roulette: The Inside Story on Putin’s War on America and the Election of Donald Trump.”
“No,” Isikoff responded in an interview released Saturday.
“You would not?” asked Ziegler.
“No,” Isikoff repeated.
Isikoff’s views about the dossier are significant because of his central role in advancing the narrative that the Russian government conspired with Trump associates. more here

Isikoff’s the guy who farts in the elevator and exits, leaving you to take the blame.
“Would you agree that a lot of what’s in the Steele dossier has been somewhat vindicated?”
Hey NPC, you don’t “somewhat vindicate” allegations, you prove them. None of what’s in the Dossier has been proven. Scott Adams is right; We are watching two different movies.
Sounds like he is protecting his book sales by avoiding the obvious BS in the dossier.
Not much of a reporter if he’s changing his tune.
It’s not even Dump Week yet, and the inconvenient truth is already coming out.
Well DUHHHHHHHHH! Welcome to 2016, fake news. You’re at least in the right DECADE… for ONCE. 🙄
