Christopher Steele Defends Discredited Dossier, Claims New Trump Information

In a media campaign for his new book, Steele argues that disinformation often contains truths lacking context.

Christopher Steele, author of the controversial 2016 dossier on Donald Trump, discusses disinformation and context in a Newsweek op-ed.
Steele criticizes journalists for lacking the depth to handle complex information, suggesting many face temptations to publish dubious material.
The Steele dossier, funded by Hillary Clinton's campaign, was largely discredited after investigations found many claims unsubstantiated.
Steele maintains there is more context to the dossier than publicly available and claims to have shared additional information with the FBI.
Promoting his new book, Steele hints at further damaging information about Trump, though his claims are met with skepticism by Trump’s campaign.
