Our contacts with the media. i'm not going to speak to any investigative outcomes. >> do you believe this is lawful in an election? >> i don't think they're appropriate at any time. i was a former prosecutor. worked extensively with fbi agents in my prior capacity and all of us would have thought that that was entirely inappropriate. >> the report says that you, and i quote, "will separately report on those investigations as they are concluded." does this money that this leak investigation is ongoing? >> our work remains ongoing and when we can do that consistent with the i.g. act, the law of ...

Very first press conference i held is how i think how important this is. second, the steps that we'll outline are significant, just as an example, convening every single ses employee in the entire fbi to come for a full day of training specifically focused on in as a measure of how seriously i take this. we'll have the people who is highlighted in the report handled through our disciplinary process and held accountable as appropriate. my comments the other day are a measure of my view of the fbi. i don't have to imagine what happens in the fbi. i see the fbi up close every day, investigation a...
