My article this week was about Hillary Clintons current issue involving her email. Past Secretary of State, and most likely presidential candidate for 2016, Hillary Clinton, has been trying to bring down the numerous concerns of her using her private email while leading the state department. She discussed this thoroughly at a press conference at a press conference this past Tuesday. During the press conference she stated that she had not broken any rules, and that she would not be handing over over the private server housing her correspondence, despite the fact that many people are calling for its release. Clinton stated that she used a private domain for her work, and personal emails out of convenience. She believed using one email would be much easier at the time, but now has stated that it would have been a good idea do have just made two separate ones.
This was stated Hillary at the press conference "I opted for convenience to use my personal email account, which was allowed by the State Department, because I thought it would be easier to carry just one device for my work and for my personal emails instead of two," she said. "Looking back, it would have been better if I'd simply used a second email account and carried a second phone, but at the time, this didn't seem like an issue."
This article was very informational, and gave me a good look into what the roles of media are because it showed that the media pounces at any opportunity it has to make politicians look bad to get publicity. I believe that Hillary was not in the wrong with one email only, but should have made two separate ones. I hope this media doesn't damage Hillary's reputation, and she was not in the wrong.
