McClatchy News: Television cameras rolled when Hillary Clinton appeared
on the central balcony of the New York Stock Exchange to ring the
opening bell — just minutes after she attended a private breakfast in
September 2009 with influential Wall Street and business leaders.
But the identities of her breakfast guests would be left off of her
official State Department calendar — omissions that are among scores of
names and events missing from Clinton’s historical record of her daily
activities as secretary of state, an Associated Press review found.
Now the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, Clinton met that
morning with a dozen chief executives, most of whose firms had lobbied
the government and donated to her family’s global charity, the Clinton
Foundation. The event was closed to the press and merited only a brief
mention in her official calendar, which omitted the names of all her
guests — among them Blackstone Group Chairman Steven Schwarzman, PepsiCo
CEO Indra Nooyi and then-New York Bank of Mellon CEO Robert Kelly.
