How sure are we that this was a real email and not one of the fake ones mixed in by Wikileaks (or "whomever")? Actually, as I previously articulated, I just don't care. Knock yourself out.

What fake ones? Nobody has ever denied ANY of the emails were real, including the debate questions email.

Fair enough. I did some research and you are correct, though Donna Brazile says she was helping both campaigns (Clinton and Sanders) prepare for the town halls and debates and the release of emails was selective to make it look like she was just trying to help Clinton. Not sure of the veracity of her statement though and I don't care enough to dig deeper. As far as I can tell, Brazile emailed the Clinton team about one question/topic at two different town halls (not debates) - one on the Flint water crises and one about the death penalty.

That said, the hackers added a fake watermark to one of the stolen DNC emails, the same hackers have doctored or tainted other stolen emails & documents, and there is a fake Podesta email circulating that some believe was part of the real hacked emails. Sorry I was confused, but again, it is a topic I really don't care about ... as I literally noted in the same post.
