By MICHAEL S. SCHMIDT and MAGGIE HABERMANJULY 25, 2015
WASHINGTON Amid renewed controversy surrounding Hillary Rodham Clintons use of private email for government work, a dispute erupted on Saturday over when and how she would publicly testify before the House select committee investigating the 2012 terrorist attacks on the American diplomatic outpost in Benghazi, Libya.
Mrs. Clintons aides announced Saturday morning that she had accepted an invitation to testify on Oct. 22. But a spokesman for the Republican-led committee said hours later that no agreement had been reached.
And by days end, it was not clear what exactly they were arguing over.
A spokesman for Mrs. Clinton said she accepted the committees invitation on Friday, the same day that inspectors general for the State Department and the nations intelligence agencies said they had discovered classified information on the private email account Mrs. Clinton used while she was secretary of state. The inspectors general said the secret information should never have been stored outside secure government systems.
Nick Merrill, a spokesman for Mrs. Clintons presidential campaign, said in a statement Saturday that the campaign had reviewed the statements by the inspectors general.

Maybe they should get an adult and the reporters in the conference room and explain it with hand puppets or dry erase boards.
