In an interview with Clinton Cash author Peter Schweitzer on Monday's NBC Today about the scandal swirling around the Clinton Foundation, co-host Savannah Guthrie worried about the political fallout for Hillary Clinton: "Before we get into some of the details, let's put it bluntly. Are you hoping that this book and the issues you raise in it torpedo her candidacy?"

Schweitzer rejected the notion: "No, this is not really motivated to her candidacy, we're just interested in transparency. I've done two previous books that looked at corruption and looked at people in both political parties."
