source on the source being russian hackers? besides from msm echochamber?

  The "msm echochamber" thing is an especially funny trope, as it amounts to saying, "source on that claim, apart from all of the journalists who actually investigate claims like this".

    There's evidence in the leaked emails that parts of the media take orders from political entities or politically interested parent companies. I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for a source that isn't essentially a known liar.

      It is an unreasonable request, given that the emails say nothing of the sort. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/14/magazine/anatomy-of-a-media-conspiracy.html http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/14/magazine/anatomy-of-a-medi...

        There are literally multiple hundreds of 'media-related' emails and in some cases, the campaign wrote the articles and gave them to reporters to print. So, good on ou for finding one of those hundreds who went on record to clarify and defend their agreement with the Clinton campaign, but you have hundreds more to go.
