Please explain thought process. Why paper release 2 hours before

news conference? I'm not a lawyer or a politician and would have probably had the news conference and then released papers. Why the other way around with a two hour gap?

I know I'm going to feel like an idiot when someone gives me the reason but I'm willing to risk it. :)

2. He probably wants to give reporters things to ask questions about.

3. Seems to me

That the reasoning for the news conference is that there is further news to discuss besides the papers.

4. Probably so he doesn't get asked a brazillion questions that can

be answered with the reports.

8. That would be my guess. He can refer people to the documents

and you can bet the documents are very carefully worded to avoid revealing anything but the essentials.

5. So there will be less misinformed speculation running rampant perhaps

Sounds like a great idea to issue a paper release first, then Fitz can put out his final words about the case after people have digested the report.

6. So the information can be digested..

and reported. Then Fitz can verbally give more details and/or answer any questions.

I hope, I hope he takes questions.

10. Not an idiot. We're just used to the unaccountable political model,

rather than the responsible apolitical model.
