0.00006% of State Dept. Emails Preserved

Jim Young/Reuters

Apparently, Hillary Clinton wasn’t the only person at the State Department who didn’t save her emails. According to a report from the Office of Inspector General, many at State did not properly preserve emails for record-keeping purposes. Of 1 billion emails sent by employees in 2011, only 61,000 were marked for “public record.” (This does not necessarily mean the rest were deleted.) While the report found that employees “have not received adequate training or guidelines” for preserving emails, it also noted that “some employees do not create record emails because they do not want to make the email available in searches or fear that this availability would inhibit debate about pending decisions.”.................

was the expression in use back when Republicans were doing all sorts of craptacular things.

When management is neglecting its duties, everyone below slacks off too. Whether they just weren't making their work 'public' or spending most of their time sending private emails, State doesn't appear to have been run well in the time in question.
