5 Facts That Killed New Hillary Email Scandal In Less Than An Afternoon

[ProudProgressiveNow]

There is no doubt many supporters of Hillary Clinton had a mild heart attack when information came out early Friday afternoon that the FBI was reviewing some emails related to their earlier probe. By late Friday afternoon, most realized it was essentially a huge nothing burger. Here’s five facts we now know that practically buried this new “scandal” before it went anywhere.

1. The Emails Did Not Come From Her Private Server.

1. Gracias, PPN!

[Ruth Bonner]

2. Wow. Journalism... except for the vetting coming after the story was released.

We can't expect them to rise up from the muck that quickly.

[pansypoo53219]

43. gerbilism. SQUIRREL!!!

[ismnotwasm]

3. Yeah

Once again, there is no "there" there.

The danger being in the hysterical spin

[doc03]

4. Oh really you better pass that along to the news networks n/t

[cheezmaka]

6. Thank you!

[Agnosticsherbet]

7. Excellent

[Coyotl]

8. Wow, facts still matter in 2016? Who knew?

"If it's on Twitter, it must be true." Abe Lincoln on Twitter

[barbtries]

10. thank you

would someone please get this in front of the young turks? they're in a fucking PANIC. Cenk said Hillary might still squeak out the win. really?
REALLY?!
i could not keep watching.

[elmac]

19. ABC world news acting the same

its sickening and showing sniffles gloating was even more sickening, he now LOVES the FBI more then Puttin.

[budkin]

11. It's not killed though, it's all over the news

And it will be until Comey clarifies, which it appears he has no intention to.

[anneboleyn]

16. Clinton press conference and nonstop news coverage means this is NOT OVER.

It makes me fucking sick but it is ridiculous.

[humbled_opinion]

25. Yep she demanded the FBI

put it all out in public so I don't think the FBI has a choice in that now.

[Rocknrule]

13. Let this be a lesson to us however...

that for the next week and a half, we are still staring down the barrel of a Trump presidency. It doesn't matter if Hillary is ahead by double digits in Oklahoma, we CANNOT get the least bit complacent.

I got a friend to vote for the first time in his life, for Hillary. Hopefully that's just one of many success stories all over the country.

[smirkymonkey]

14. K&R

[elmac]

17. Trump now loves the FBI

I know its nothing but am pissed and always will be pissed at the FBI for trying to knock HRC down. They are just another branch of the terrorist group called the GOP.

[Cosmocat]

23. Comey is a mfing pos

Nm

[humbled_opinion]

24. However, Hillary

went out there and demanded the FBI release the info, so it will be coming out in next few days, the FBI has no choice.

[regnaD kciN]

33. No guarantee of that…

…plus, even if FBI does "clarify," it won't be until Monday at the earliest -- thus giving the story time to become the entrenched narrative.

[duffyduff]

28. Stop this shit, please.

This a non-story, so cut this garbage out.

[C Moon]

30. CNN was all over it, before it was all over.

Do these news networks ever wait on something to see if there is any truth behind it? In my eyes, they are all becoming digital tabloids—without the tongue in cheek humor.

[demigoddess]

32. I'd lay money that Weiner emailed his wife to say hello or maybe

are you going to be working late with Hillary tonight?

[Mc Mike]

37. Reverbpress link currently 503 temporarily not available.

[ProudProgressiveNow]

44. Back up. nt

[Mc Mike]

47. I'm still having trouble with your link and raster's reverb link on Chaffetz.

I saw the main page for a flash, after a couple mins loading. As soon as I scrolled down, the page vanished and went into a blank loading.

I'll check back later. I have it bookmarked. Thanks.

[LAS14]

39. I wish CNN, NPR and ABC shared your views.

They're starved for scandal. It's been a day or two with nothing new.

[LAS14]

40. Great minds... :-)

"The FBI story also broke at the exact time when the media was eager for a dramatic twist/complication in the "Clinton coasts" narrative. " Nate Silver

[spinbaby]

54. Really

This is a story in which there is no there there. We know this because we''re paying attention. However, voters who are just casually listening to the news are hearing:

"Devastating October surprise"
"Bombshell"
"Smoking gun"
"Predatory sexting"
"Trump surging"

[Awsi Dooger]

41. Sounds better than 6 hours ago

I left to play golf at 2:45, in the early stages.

Some of these updates are encouraging in limiting the damage, although the word "reopened" will be attached and linger whether it was warranted or not. It looks like CNN sensationalized in the early minutes and it stuck.

I hit my longest drive in months on the 5th hole. I was taking out my anger on the golf ball.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

42. Trump went full monty for THREE emails?

[bucolic_frolic]

45. Politicizing the FBI

will not be very well received in the long run

[erpowers]

46. My Question

How many people will not get this information about this story?

[trueblue2007]

51. CORRECT !!! I just posted this information to my facebook wall

[sarcasmo]

52. Kick.

[judesedit]

56. It is really something how little the news media cares about the country they will be leaving to

their children and future generations. What a bunch of traitors to all Americans.

[mountain grammy]

58. Huge K & R

[niyad]

59. wanted to catch chris hayes replay last night--but. . . nooooo. msnbc salivating over

the emails, and not one of the five things listed was mentioned.

and yet, I had a fool try to insist to me that msnbc is a liberal mouthpiece

[tjl148]

60. Maybe....

This could very well be nothing. But how do we know? Does anyone know what the FBI found? If they do, I sure would like to hear about it.
Another question - Wouldn't the AG know what the FBI found and if it was nothing let that be known? Why is Lynch quiet on this? This has me more worried then most of you are apparently.

[Sunny05]

61. They've made fools of themselves.

I hope this comes out on broad scale. It will come out, actually. Some people won't get it; others won't admit it. But at least those with sense and decency will know the truth.

[Ernest Partridge]

62. "Facts?!" Gimme a break!

What a pity that facts don't matter in this election.

Trump (and the media) are proving that.

[budkin]

63. It's still every lead in every paper

Fuck James Comey

[TNNurse]

64. Please remember

facts are meaningless to many, they prefer negative info, regardless of the source.
