Wikileaks allows the entire world to sift through about a thousand emails per day.
“Wikileaks allows the entire world to sift through about a thousand emails per day.”
Ok, let’s do the math. Sifting isn’t reading. As mentioned before, looking for predetermined guesses on what key words will appear is a naive way to proceed, a method that will miss 90% of what might be of great interest.
If it takes 650 man hour days (reading 1,000 messages day - that’s more than 100 an hour, working a 10 hour day) to even sift through and there are seven days in a week, working around the clock with coffee breaks, that would be 93 trusted FBI agents working non-stop for a week. Do you think that quicky “sifting” took place? I do not.
It’s inconceivable that nothing of interest was found among the 650,000. Why was the copied and hidden file cynically entitled, “Life Insurance”? Did Huma think that Hillary’s tens upon tens of thousands of discussions about “yoga classes” and “Chelsea wedding arrangements” would be enough to give Huma leverage to try to save her skin?
Did the wedding arrangements the Clintons made for Huma’s wedding in the Clintons’ garden with Bill Clinton officiating, benefit anyone in the long run? Given the likelihood that the sadly addicted Anthony Weiner will be their fall guy, may the wedding will have helped them all.
