Ring of Truth

According to Jules Crittenden, the following news item "has the ring of truth."

NEW YORK (Online) - Former prime minister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto was assassinated on the orders of the special death squad formed by former US vice-president Dick Cheney, which had already killed the Lebanese Prime Minister Rafique Al Hariri and the army chief of that country.
The squad was headed by General Stanley McChrystal, the newly-appointed commander of US army in Afghanistan. It was disclosed by reputed US journalist Seymour Hersh while talking to an Arab TV in an interview.

"By 'ring of truth,' I mean it sounds like something Seymour Hersh would have said."

So let me understand this? Is Crittenden saying it strikes him as true that Sy Hersh would make something out of whole cloth that was also a blood libel?
