On Wednesday one of Hillary Clinton’s top aides, Huma Abedin, testified in a sworn deposition to Judicial Watch about Clinton’s use of a private E-Mail and server, as a part of an ongoing lawsuit. That evening, two of the “big three” networks were silent about the testimony and the latest batch of E-Mails. On Special Report, Fox News’ Bret Baier read some of them, “Hillary to Huma, “Let’s get separate addresses or device. But I don't want to risk— any risk of the personal being accessible.”

Recognizing Clinton’s motives, Charles Krauthammer called her out and raised some serious questions:

This does confirm how much of a lie it was when she said I chose to have the two iPhones or the two devices because it was convenient.” It is clear from these emails and others she did it to hide her personal stuff. Now, we don't know what's in her personal stuff. Does the personal stuff mean the Clinton Foundation and possible corruption favors, et cetera, there or not?

ABC was the only network in the “big three” to report about Abedin’s sworn deposition, which was a bit surprising since Clinton lackey George Stephanopoulos was the anchor. Though, Stephanopoulos kept it simple by only reporting that the E-Mail arrangement once cause Clinton to miss an important phone call, because the State Department system was kicking her messages into the spam folder.

In addition, the Spanish-language networks Univision and Telemundo also failed to cover Abedin’s questioning by Judicial Watch.
