[See NewsBusters for more.] According to Katie Couric, "plenty of politicians" use private e-mail for work and it's not a big a deal. The veteran journalist interviewed Mitt Romney for Yahoo on Thursday and pressed the 2012 Republican nominee on why Hillary Clinton's secret e-mail system is a source of concern.   Initially, Couric asked Romney what he would do "if you were in Hillary Clinton's shoes." She then defended, "Plenty of other politicians though, as you know, governor, have used personal e-mail while in office. You did while you were governor of Massachusetts. So, what is the difference and why is what she did more egregious?"
