With James Comey, Bret Baier was, thankfully, NOT Stephen Colbert

Comey Makes Surprising New Claims In Disastrous Fox News Interview
"Former FBI Director James Comey made startling new statements on Thursday during an interview with Fox News host Bret Baier that many instantly said was a disaster for Comey.
"Comey defended sharing his classified memos about conversations with President Donald Trump with his friend, Columbia University law professor Daniel Richman.
“ 'That memo was unclassified then,” Comey told Baier. “It's still unclassified. It's in my book. The FBI cleared that book before it could be published.”

“ 'I didn't consider it part of an FBI file," Comey continued. "It was my personal aid to memoir.' ” span style="font-family: "lato" , sans-serif;">"Notable moments from the interview include:". . .

In his interview with Bret Baier, James Comey’s lies and evasions were stunning

"Oozing charm from every pore, he oiled his way around the floor."  

. . . "The always perspicacious Bret Baier interviewed Comey and the result was almost comical for Comey's dissembling.  He's just released a book, but he knows nothing!  He has nebulous recollections.  He's not sure.  "It's possible"...He thinks.....!   It's not for him to say.... It's his understanding.... He doesn't remember clearly, 'I'm not allowed to say,' and on and on. 

"Comey’s ability to communicate vagueness is stunning. " . . .

Turns out James Comey was a blabbermouth all along

Tour De Force: FNC’s Baier Grills Comey Over Dossier, E-Mail, Leaks in Epic Interview "Former FBI Director and new author James Comey has spent the past 12 days on his book tour promoting A Higher Loyalty, the supposed greatness of Comey himself and the lack thereof on the part of President Trump. 

"However, no prior interview compared to his Thursday hit on the Fox News Channel’s Special Report as host Bret Baier offered a masterfully tough tour de force akin to interviews of yesteryear by the late Tim Russert." . . .

It was soon after that Baier showed his mettle, telling Comey that “you already knew that she had been telling, whatever you want to say, lies, mistruths about this investigation of what — and how she handled those emails” and played a clip of Comey stating just that in congressional testimony in July 2016. 

Byron York: Is Comey telling the truth about his memos?  . . . "Comey made some of the same arguments Thursday night in an interview with Fox News' Bret Baier. "I don't consider what I did with Mr. Richman a leak," Comey said. "I told him about an unclassified conversation with the president."

" 'That's a leak, isn't it?" Baier asked a bit later. "It's not," Comey responded." . . .
