Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean (D) on Friday dismissed media coverage of Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server, saying the controversy is "nonsense."
"There's really no substance to this story at all," Dean said during an appearance on "MSNBC Live" with host Craig Melvin, blasting the "media frenzy" surrounding her use of private email as secretary of State.
"If the argument is that Hillary Clinton committed treason then let's have that discussion. This is innuendo, this is nonsense. There was no dishonesty. She did not send any emails marked classified," Dean said. "This is a classic press feeding frenzy fed, I might add, by the right wing."

But Dean said that Clinton would be able to put the controversy behind her eventually.
"Right now the press is very frustrating to her. I've been in that position. I'm very sympathetic with what she's going through. She's going to have to weather this storm. It'll go away, because there's no substance to it, and it'll probably go away right around the time of the caucuses," he said.
