Washington (AFP) - Piling on more embarrassment for Hillary Clinton amid a row about her emails, US officials revealed Thursday that during her time as secretary of state she had eschewed a government-issued cell phone.
Spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Clinton was "not issued a State Department BlackBerry, and that wasn't a requirement -- no one is required to be issued a State Department BlackBerry."
The revelation is likely to raise more concerns about national security as well as speculation that the former first lady may have been hiding information that could embarrass her in her presidential campaign.
Clinton is at the center of a political firestorm about her use of a private email account during her four years as secretary of state, and her attempt earlier this week to douse the flames left many questions unanswered.
Clinton said Tuesday she had used her private account as "a matter of convenience" and that she did not want to carry multiple devices.

Can everyone shout out a collective “BS” on this?
Clinton uses a Chicom issued Blackberry.
4.Across. Six letter word for slut begins with M ends
with a.
I know beauty is only skin deep but Hildabeast is ugly to the bone and beyond.
While I was in the Navy, going to school to learn electronic warfare, they made it very clear I’d have been sent to prison had I removed 1 slither of paper from that school.
This idiot passed around mountains of classified information like chewing gum.
Hmmm-I wonder why PETA didn’t bust her for the fur coat.
Actually they did but as you’d expect she had a Clintonian excuse, it was handed down from her grandmother.
If she said it is a sunny day, I would look out the window.
I could only believe THAT if she killed her grandmother to GET it
It’s a false statement by the State Department....if you are on recall access or part of any contingency staff....you need immediate access....aka....the gov’t Blackberry. If you go to Homeland Security, DoD, Justice Department, etc....if you on the upper levels and require immediate contact...you get a Blackberry.
If they stand by this statement, you can quickly figure out why NO ONE acted when the ambassador was being pursued in Libya. No one had immediate access to the info.
IF she runs and participates in a debate, she will be guaranteed that no mention of her lack of integrity or her life of criminal abuse of power will be allowed. Otherwise she won’t run.
Can you imagine that. State Department sending immediate emergency messages to Hillary’s private phone, while she is in bed with Huma ? Sound on the phone turned off. If she had an official Blackberry, all texts would be stored and retrievable in a server she had no access too.
Depends on the meaning of “IT” this time
You can bet the farm Huma Abedin's emails are far more indicting than Hillary's. GET HUMA'S EMAILS!!!!!
Bet she has a lot of blackberry’s.
Well played, sir.
