That's right, go after the bearer of bad news. The Intel Comm IG has already found she violated law

The following must be a Breitbart-sourced email conspiracy theory, right?

Statement from the Inspectors General of the Intelligence Community and the
Department of State Regarding the Review of Former Secretary Clinton's Emails
Yesterday the Office ofthe Inspector General ofthe Intelligence Community (IC IG} sent a
congressional notification to intelligence oversight committees updating them of the IC IG
support to the State Department IG (attached).
The IC IG found four emails containing classified IC-derived information in a limited sample of
40 emails of the 30,000 emails provided by former Secretary Clinton. The four emails, which
have not been released through the State FOIA process, did not contain classification markings
and/or dissemination controls. These emails were not retroactively classified by the State
Department; rather these emails contained classified information when they were generated
and, according to IC classification officials, that information remains classified today. This
classified information should never have been transmitted via an unclassified personal system.

That will be confirmed when the IG's office releases its own report about her felony classified information offenses that the FBI will confirm. So, what will your response be? Alert the NYT article that reports it as a Breitbart conspiracy?
I suppose I've been practicing journalism without a license, as well, in your book.
