Carney: ‘No Knowledge of Any Attempt by the Justice Department to Seek Phone Records of the AP’

Jay Carney responds to the AP’s story on phone records:

“Other than press reports, we have no knowledge of any attempt by the Justice Department to seek phone records of the AP.  We are not involved in decisions made in connection with criminal investigations, as those matters are handled independently by the Justice Department.  Any questions about an ongoing criminal investigation should be directed to the Department of Justice.”
