SAVING THE BEST FOR THE END

This LA Times article reports on intelligence experts who cast doubt on Edward Snowden's claims about access, his and the NSA's.  At the very end of the article, we have a statement that contradicts the previous doubts:

The former senior government official said that as a computer expert, Snowden could have gained access on the NSA computer network to some of the documents he purportedly leaked. But other documents he claims that he provided to the Guardian and the Washington Post, such as the FISA order, are in theory supposed to be kept more tightly held, he said.
