Hillary Clinton has taken a lot of hits over her decision to exclusively use a personal email account for her work as secretary of state. Among them: that in deciding which of the emails to turn over to the State Department, and which to withhold, nobody opened and read each email.
That was the conclusion that some reporters and experts drew from a nine-page fact sheet from Mrs. Clintons office, which lays out the process she used in detail. Nowhere in that description does it say that the emails were individually reviewed. Rather, it describes a series of searchesusing keywords and the names of public officials, for instanceused to figure out which emails were related to her work.
Now a spokesman for Mrs. Clinton says that in fact, each email was individually reviewed.
Every email was reviewed, spokesman Nick Merrill said in an email. In an attempt to clear up any confusion, he added: What was in the fact sheet were examples of techniques used by the reviewers to double and triple check they were capturing everything. This was NOT in lieu of reading them all, was in ADDITION to reading them all. We did not mean to imply otherwise.
There has, in fact, been confusion on this point, because the fact sheet made no mention of anyone reading the emails. Several publications wrote pieces saying that nobody in Mrs. Clintons team read through all the emails.Some argued that it was easy to imagine emailsrelevantto Mrs. Clintons official duties that could remain uncaptured by searching on names and keywords.
Federal law puts the responsibility on individuals to decide which of their documents are federal records that must be preserved. Mrs. Clintons office said that in making decisions, she erred on the side of including anything that might potentially be a federal record. The Clinton fact sheet laid out the process in some detail. It said she began with 62,320 emails during the four years she was in office and said Mrs. Clinton asked her attorneys to sort through the account and figure out what needed to be turned over to the State Department after officials there requested the emails last year.
The fact sheet said that first, her attorneys pulled out those that had a government email address in any address field. That yielded 27,500 emails, which were designated official communications.
Then, searching among the other emails, Mrs. Clintons lawyers looked for names of government and other officials, including close aides. They also sorted addresses by sender and recipient to look for email addresses that werent obviously official.
Finally, they did a keyword search of the emails without government addresses, using terms such as Benghazi and Libya, which presumably would have retrieved any emails about the attack on the diplomatic post there. Through those additional steps, the attorneys found 2,900 additional emails that were considered official.
It didnt mention an email-by-email review.

Hillary Clinton Spokesman: We Did Read Each Email
Republicans are casting a wider net in their investigation of Hillary Clinton's use of a private email address during her time as secretary of state.
In the GOP's weekly address Saturday, Indiana Rep. Susan Brooks, who is a member of the House Select Committee in charge of scrutinizing the events leading up to the 2012 attack on a U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya, is calling for Clinton to pass on the actual email server that hosted her private address, rather than just copies of the relevant electronic messages.
"Right now there is no way for us to know whether we have all of the State Department communications that rightfully belong to the American people. The only way to truly know is by having access to Secretary Clinton's personal server," Brooks said in a new video. "That is why we are asking Secretary Clinton to turn her server over to a neutral, third-party arbiter."
Citing the need for the surveyor to be "completely impartial and independent," Brooks also called on a third party to sift through the thousands of pages accumulated over Clinton's tenure in President Obama's Cabinet.

"After a complete inventory, this arbiter can make a determination as to which emails should be public and which should remain private," the Indiana congresswoman said. "By handing her server over to a neutral, third-party arbiter, Secretary Clinton can help us move forward with figuring out what happened to our people."
What this "independent" arbiter might look like is still anyone's guess. While South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy, who chairs the House Select Committee, and Sen. Lindsey Graham have said they've lost confidence in the State Department to make determinations about what should be made public, no formal steps have been announced for another lawyer or federal judge to handle the matter.
