Reuters buries this pesky fact in paragraph 6: 'no evidence of wrongdoing or collusion between the campaign and Russia'

Early this morning, Reuters posted this “Exclusive” alleging that the Trump campaign “had at least 18 undisclosed contacts with Russians during the presidential race”:

But then there’s this pesky detailed buried in paragraph 6:

The people who described the contacts to Reuters said they had seen no evidence of wrongdoing or collusion between the campaign and Russia in the communications reviewed so far.

And after that revelation, paragraph 6 still has a “but”:

But the disclosure could increase the pressure on Trump and his aides to provide the FBI and Congress with a full account of interactions with Russian officials and others with links to the Kremlin during and immediately after the 2016 election.

Don’t give up guys!
