Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said in an interview Tuesday that she was "sorry" for using a private email account while secretary of State.
"It was above board. But in retrospective, certainly, as I look back at it now — even though it was allowed — I should have used two accounts, one for personal, one for work-related emails," Clinton told ABC News's "David Muir" for the interview aired Tuesday evening.
"That was a mistake. I'm sorry about that. I take responsibility. And I'm trying to be as transparent as I possibly can to not only release 55,000 pages of my emails, turn over my server, but I am looking forward, finally, to testifying before Congress," Clinton said.
"Did you make a mistake?" Muir asked again to clarify her use of the word.
"I did, I did. As I said, it was allowed, and there was no hiding it. It was totally above-board. Everybody in the government I communicated with — and that was a lot of people — knew I was using a personal email," she said. "But I'm sorry that it has raised all of these questions. I do take responsibility for ... what is clearly not the best decision."
ABC News earlier Tuesday released an 8-second video clip of Clinton saying she made a "mistake" and was "sorry," but it was unclear the question posed to her or the context of her remarks.
Hours later, during the taping for "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," Clinton seemingly reverted back to saying she was "sorry for all the confusion" surrounding her email, according to a pair of reporters who attended the taping. That was the response she had given NBC's Andrea Mitchell in an interview on Friday.

Sorry for what Hillary? On Andrea Mitchell's interview on Friday you said there was nothing to apologize for. Did the focus group numbers came over the weekend? Is it the continuous drop on your favorability? New Hampshire? Iowa?
Sorry that you got caught? Hillary Clinton has shown time and time again that she has poor judgement.
No wonder that when a Quinnipiac poll recently asked: What is the first word that comes to mind when you think of Hillary Clinton? Here were the first 10 words that came to mind:
- liar 178
- dishonest 123
- untrustworthy 93
- experience 82
- strong 59
- Bill 56
- woman 47
- smart 31
- crook 21
- untruthful 19
Damn, no wonder Joe Biden keeps warming up in the bullpen.
