One thing you can say is that there is such a lack of transparency in this case that it's easy to exploit that and put out all kinds of assertions. It produces opportunities for loathsome characters as well as good people who are looking for answers. I'll just make that an argument for why more transparency is usually good thing ( except where you don't want the bad guys to learn what you know ). .

How would it be verified because then the person would have to identify themselves and first of all, be fired for breaking medical rules for releasing info, secondly, they would be in danger from whoever shot Rich. If the press does not have to verify sources than neither do tipsters.

Hey big deal Orwell - notice you've suddenly popped up to shill on Kim Dot Com. What are they paying you to work in their animal farm? $15 an hour? You obviously haven't read a page of Orwell. Hop to it. Ignorance is NOT strength!

I disagree with this sentiment and agree that we have to be 100% tight in these claims. Those two are in fact unverified. Do with that what you will but know it. I don't quite agree with the header of the Orig Post, though. He may have missed it; I too await his response.

Exactly why all sources need to be verified before they are pushed as fact. I'm not saying Dotcom doesn't know something but he needs to be only publishing facts.

What do you know? You're being paid. Why bother with such a ridiculous post? You've come to the board straight out of the animal farm factory. Go find a real job.

I haven't seen any press releases from the hospital or the family, or the family's spokesperson denying that Seth was a patient at Washington Medical Center

That is true. It should still be treated with skeptical eyes until we have absolute confirmation though.

I don't think Kim is deliberately spreading disinformation, especially considering his position in regards to all of this. He may not be fully aware of the deep and intricate citizen investigation going on- on a day to day basis.

I don't know what to think. If enough people bring it to his attention hopefully he will have the owner of the site amend those two things to at least say "unverified".

The_Roman_Numeral

There is no place for disinformation/misinformation. If it isn't right, yes, it should be edited.

ACHILLES_HEEL

You don't know what to think because you clearly cannot think. Being paid to shill must be awfully demoralising. Time to start thinking critically.

Please let us know when he responds, I'm curious his answer too.
