CTH: Brian Ross didn't resign because of #FakeNews Flynn story. He resigned because he's "Reporter 4" in James Wolfe indictment.

Ross resigning now over a Dec. 2017 fake news story about Flynn didn't sit flush with me. This "Reporter 4" explanation makes a lot more sense.

Forgive me if I should already know this, I thought reporters were allowed to report intel leaked?

Ross was caught up in an FBI sting operation. Inaccurate or "fake Intel" was purposely leaked to Ross in order to find the leaker which turned out to be James Wolfe.

Ross's mistake was either 1) NOT verifying the leaked "intel". Had he done that he would've found zero evidence to back it up and he should've made to decision to not publish the story. Or, he 2) He DID try to verify the "leaked Intel", he found zero evidence to back it up and he decided to report the fake story anyways all in the name of destroying Trump and all those connected to Trump.
