Private investigators. one thing at a time. the sean spicer meeting, did it happen. i ll go back to it. i have a tendency to do that. i apologize. did it happen. the sean spicer meeting. > i had a meeting with sean spicer. i brought rod wheeler along. it was about this audio recording that cy hersh of cy hersh saying there s a mirror copy of the hard drive of seth rich s at the cart division at the i don t know if. you know hersh says you got his reporting wrong, right? he says you took two and two and made 45 out of it. you know what? cy hersh, maybe that s his math but the reality is i m not saying anything. listen to it and listen to his own words. i m not concluding anything at all, chris. i m just saying when the source of the material says that your conclusion about it was wrong it should be out there in public space. what s my conclusion? i don t have a conclusion. you saw it as something

not to add any more pressure but the president just read the article. he wants the article out immediately. today, that donor, the man in the middle telling abc news he s never even spoken to the president before. i didn t speak to anybody at the white house. i was being sloppy with my words. reporter: and late today, the white house was pressed about that story that later outraged seth rich s own family. the president had no knowledge of the story and it s completely untrue that he or the white house had any involvement in this story. tom llamas with us live outside fox news in manhattan, and fox news is pushing back against the claims made by this investigator. reporter: yeah, david, and we should also note that this investigator is a fox news contributor. fox news telling us tonight that they see no evidence that they misquoted that investigator. as for the allegation that they first published that story to help detract from coverage of the russian collusion issue, the
