AP FACT CHECK: Clinton misstates key facts in email episode
By LISA LERER and CATHERINE LUCEY
Associated Press
ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Over the months, Hillary Clinton misstated key facts about her use of private email and her own server for her work as secretary of state, the department's inspector general reported this week.
According to the findings, she claimed approval she didn't have and declined to be interviewed for the report despite saying "I'm more than ready to talk to anybody anytime." Scrutiny of her unusual email practices appeared to be unwelcome, despite her contention those practices were well known and "fully above board."
A look at some of Clinton's past claims about her unusual email set-up and how they compare with the inspector general's findings:

She only responds to pressure. She does not tell the truth on her own.
