Did Hilary Clinton's discomfort with technology cause her to lose the election?
After reading the FBI summaries of the Clinton email debacle, Garrett Graff reports that Clinton could not use a desktop computer and preferred to use a single outdated BlackBerry (Curve 8310) for both business and personal correspondence rather than use the government-issued device for State Department business.
Click here for the podcast in which “Sean Cole talks to reporter Garrett Graff, who read the 247 pages of interview summaries of the FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s emails. Graff concludes that it’s not the scandal most people thought it was. Not a sophisticated, Machiavellian scheme to evade federal rules and record laws. The interviews 'depict less a sinister and carefully calculated effort to avoid transparency than a busy and uninterested executive who shows little comfort with even the basics of technology, working with a small, harried inner circle of aides. Reading the FBI’s interviews, Clinton’s team hardly seems organized enough to mount any sort of sinister cover-up.'”
