This from the guy who knowingly and willfully spread known Kremlin disinformation and propaganda and did so the entire time knowing that #SethRich's family was being harassed constantly over it - and he didn't care.
Don't you dare try to distance yourself from your complicity in knowingly spreading this disgusting and corrosive propaganda, @NewtGingrich. This is going to be your entire legacy and deservedly so.

You should learn this statement by heart and recite it to yourself every morning while looking in the mirror knowing that you were responsible for much of the pain the Rich family suffered. Maybe you'll become a better person, although I doubt it.
As the former managing editor of Snopes, I was in charge of nearly all newsroom operations, which included our #SethRich coverage. We attempted to contact everyone publicly spreading this debunked story, including @NewtGingrich. You can't claim ignorance.

We got some of our most terrifying death threats over this, #Pizzagate, and #QAnon, all of which are related to this. We did what we could anyway for the sake of truth, human dignity, and common fucking decency, nothing more or less. So why did you do what you did, @NewtGingrich?
