More Clinton presidency papers released

WASHINGTON -- The National Archives and Records Administration released Friday about 2,000 more pages of records from Bill Clinton's time as president, some of which detail how he had planned to handle his 1996 re-election bid.
Like previously released documents, the records made public Friday show a snapshot of life inside the Clinton White House. They were divided into 61 topics with titles like "Gays in the Military" or "Kennedy Assassination."
.. . .
A June 1996 letter from the FBI and Secret Service lobbying Clinton to keep thousands of records about President John Kennedy's assassination sealed. A committee was considering which documents to release after Congress passed the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Record Collection Act of 1992.
In the letter, they argued that some of the documents included the names of confidential informants or showed how the U.S. cooperated with foreign governments. The agencies also said the release would give away the intelligence gathering methods the FBI used in the 1960s.
"The [group deciding to release the documents] should not assume that these methods are antiquated and of little value in today's computer and satellite world just because we employed them as long ago as the 1960's," it states.
