HERE IS YOUR SIGN

No cameras, no microphones, no prying eyes and plenty of security. The setting for a clandestine meeting could not have been better. Former President Bill Clinton exited Attorney General Loretta Lynch’s private plane 20-minutes after he boarded. Both thought they got away with it. Both were wrong. Amid a heated Presidential race, federal investigations involving emails and Benghazi and society looking for clarity on the future of the country, the secret tarmac meeting would only complicate things. The secret meeting would have never been revealed if it weren’t for a veteran journalist and a trusted source. It wasn’t the Emmys, Murrows or Associated Press Awards, it was decades of experience and relationships that led to the moment Christopher Sign broke the story of the secret tarmac meeting. His former teammates and coaches at the University of Alabama would play a personal and critical role after breaking the story.

Just thinking outside the box right now. Ask yourself: where was the tarmac meeting? Phoenix. Anything significant going on in Phoenix right now? Real journalists develop sources over their career even if they move to a new location. What if someone in Phoenix reached out to him in Alabama thinking it would be safe for them to do so because he was trustworthy? Investigators better look at this as a possible angle. There are no coincidences.
