Can someone please explain to me what Hillary said was a lie about Benghazi?

Why is the media allowed too portray what she said as an outright lie? During that fog of war a lot of people believed that the video was incendiary cause of the attack. It is what, after all, our own media was purporting. What she believed was a terrorist attack she couldn't say for sure at the time was true. And the reason for the attack is being made more important than the actual attack and its outcome.

If you are hearing or reading otherwise, then those are the people who are lying.

right after the Benghazi hearings Trey Gowdy used a email that Hill had with Chelsea, where Hillary told Chelsea, no it was a terrorist attack in response to Chelsea asking if the bombing of the embassy was about the video. Trey Gowdy seized on that and said Hill lied, as the only thing they learned out of the hearings. What he did not say was that a terrorist cell at first took credit for it but was later discredited. FOX news then brought the family members of the slain and got the family members to say 'she said that they were going to go after the people who made the video' ETC... FOX news trots out those family members to sob "she lied to us" all the time.
