  • Benghazi committee says Hillary used multiple personal email accounts

    The House committee investigating the 2012 terrorist attacks in Benghazi will issue new requests to Hillary Clinton for emails from multiple personal accounts she used during her tenure as secretary of state. It was not as if she had both an official and a private email account. She did not use personal email in addition to government email. She used personal email in lieu of government email,” Gowdy said. “And she had more than one private email account.”

    Craig Evans must have thought things couldn’t get any worse after he accidentally sent a saucy text message intended for a lover to every contact in his phonebook. How wrong he was! The 24-year-old swimming coach ended up in prison for sex offences after the text also found its way to two young schoolgirls. Evans had typed an intimate invitation to his girlfriend asking her if she would like to engage in sex with him ‘skin on skin’. Excruciatingly, a slip of the fingers on his BlackBerry smartphone resulted in it going out via BlackBerry Messenger to all the numbers...

    The Associated Press Eliminates Digitally Altered Photo The Associated Press NEW YORK (AP) - The Associated Press inadvertently moved a digitally altered photograph of flooding in China on Thursday and advised its members on Friday not to use it. The photo showed residents of China's Shaanxi province trying to get through flooded streets on tricycles and bicycles. Alerted by a reader in Finland who had seen the picture in a newspaper, editors checked and it became clear that the picture had been manipulated to show the flood waters were higher than they actually were. The AP's policy is not to...
