Now we know how Nellie Ohr's work for Fusion got out there:
"Fusion helped Meier find the records, and they featured prominently in the Times story published two weeks later, proving a vital link connecting Manafort and Deripaska"

Recall that the NYT article, authored in part by Meier and referenced by Fusion (above), focused on the Ukrainian Black Ledger.

On May 30, 2016, — while working for Fusion — Nellie Ohr sent an email to Bruce Ohr, Lisa Holtyn, Ivana Nizich, and Joe Wheatley at the DOJ.
The email held a subject line that read “Reported Trove of Documents on Ukrainian Party of Regions’ ‘Black Cashbox.’”

Manafort would be famously implicated in the Black Box ledger scandal two months later — via the NYT article — and it would lead to his resignation from the Trump campaign.
From their response to Meier, it now appears that Nellie Ohr's work for Fusion was transmitted directly by Simpson & Fritsch to Barry Meier and the New York Times.
