I call it "forceful ignorance." Anything that sounds remotely appealing, they immediately believe without question. Anything that they don't want to believe, they call "fake news."
There's also a cognitive dissonance component that comes in when the leaks turn out to be true and then they switch to "it's a deep state coup" on the one hand but never update their worldview to include the fact that the leak wasn't "fake news" after all. In that way, each leak can be both "fake news" and a "deep state coup" by the "globalists" who are trying to unseat the "anti-globalist" hero of the everyman — a superwealthy globalist douchebag who has a long long history of screwing over the little guy. (more cognitive dissonance)
There's a reason that foreign teenagers can dupe this lot with fake news blogs. They're addicted to bulls#.

The guy worked and had access to DNC stuff that leaked.
You know this how? I have seen absolutely no evidence for that and I have serious doubts that he did.

You mean the statement released by a DNC PR operative?
I think we should all keep an open mind and see where this goes, maybe it's not real but maybe it is. There is no reason to automatically dismiss something especially when you have refused to even look at Webbs claims.

Lol! Got any evidence showing that the statement is wrong?

Yes. There is. Youtube is not a credible source. Any yahoo with cheap video editing software and a computer camera can make a Youtube video. I have yet to see a Youtube video that has EVER confirmed a conspiracy theory.
Furthermore, George Webb is a nobody and his opinion (which is all this Youtube video is) is just as useful as your or my opinion. Which isn't at all. You just agree with this jackass because he says stuff you want to hear. IE confirmation bias.

Wait a minute... Anti-Trump people cite youtube videos for a russian collusion as fact and evidence and you're perfectly fine with that. Hypocrisy much? ATS is full of those.

Doesn't change anything. The Seth Rich story is still a no-go and you are still trying to distract from the real investigation between the Trump admin and Russia that is dredging up real controversy.

You mean the real investigations that are based on "real evidence " from named sources that we can actually see? Yup right
