State Dept. Shuts Down Fox's Anonymous Speculation Of Clinton Aides Stripping Email Classification Markings


Research August 14, 2015 1:26 PM EDT ››› MATT GERTZ & LIS POWER


Fox News spent much of August 13 running with speculation from an anonymous State Department official that aides to Hillary Clinton had "stripped" the classification markings from emails that she received in her private email server, going so far as to state the claim as fact and speculate on who had done the alleged deed. Later that day, the State Department said there was no evidence any stripping of classification markings had occurred.

It really is sickening that corporate media is paid and bought for to do the bidding of the enemy of the country. GOPers don't give a flying fart about the United States of America. All they see is HRC moving closer to the White House, and geez whiz, they want the WH and control of all other government avenues. Can I say a one rule party.

Ain't gonna happen for 2016 - GO HILLARY!

isn't the FOX way. This will turn out to be another RW non scandal, a conspiracy without any evidence. It will be interesting to see what Joe Scarborough has to say on Monday. The GOP confetti doll is going to disintegrate before their eyes and of course the taxpayers will have a lot of wasted money spent without cause.
