Yes, but they ran the story anyway, didn't they? And these documents have been circulating for months. There's nothing new about them. And they wanted to have a story that gave further legs to the "Russian interference in the election" story. And folks like you seem to want to believe all of this no matter how idiotic or implausible the alleged "facts" might sound.
