State Dept.: 'No Evidence' That 'Deliberately Edited' Videotape Was Meant to Conceal Information
(CNSNews.com) - The U.S. State Department on Thursday said there is "no evidence" that a "deliberately edited" videotape of its Dec. 2, 2013 State Department briefing was intended to "conceal information from the public," even though someone requested the edit.
Spokesman John Kirby said a months-long internal investigation was unable to identify the person who asked for the edit: "And while the technician recalls receiving a phone call requesting the edit, there is no evidence to indicate who might've placed that call or why."
Kirby also said even if the video was edited with the intent to conceal, "There was no policy in nplace at the time prohibiting such an act."
