Meet the Press interviews during 2016: on Principles & Values

Hillary Clinton: I released 55,000 pages of email and none were classified

CLINTON: It was something I had offered to do since last August. I was pleased to have the opportunity to assist the department in bringing its review to a conclusion.

Q: How did your private server, where you kept this classified information, how is that not a violation of this code?

CLINTON: I never received nor sent any material that was marked classified. And there is a process for the review of material before it is released to the public, I call that retroactively classifying.

Q: Who advised you that it was perfectly legal for you to have a private server?

CLINTON: I'm not going to go into any more detail than I already have in public, many times, out of respect for the process that the department is conducting. But I've been answering questions now for over a year. I've released more than 55,000 pages of my emails for the public to read for themselves.
