Journalist Who Broke 'Tarmac Meeting' Story About Clinton Found Dead, Presumably Committed Suicide

The Alabama TV anchor previously indicated that he has been receiving a lot of death threats ever since he broke the story. The latter sparked allegations in 2016 that the Clintons tried to bury the FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server during her time as secretary of state.

Christopher Sign, a 45-year-old TV anchor, was found dead on 12 June at his home in Hoover, Alabama. Local police checked his home after “a person down” call around 8:00 am.

According to Hoover police Lieutenant Keith Czeskleba, his death is being investigated as a suicide, although no details as to why this theory is predominant are available at the moment.

The journalist’s colleagues were shocked by his sudden death, expressing condolences over his untimely passing.  

The TV anchor shot to fame after breaking a scandalous story about Bill Clinton’s meeting with then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch in June 2016 on the tarmac at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.

The event, which is often dubbed as the “tarmac meeting”, sparked controversy since it took place at the same time as the FBI was probing Clinton’s wife, Hillary, over her alleged use of a private email server instead of the government-issued one when she served as secretary of state. The attorney general, however, insisted that no matters related to the investigation had been discussed during that meeting with Clinton, which she described as “primarily social”.

Christopher Sign’s breaking news story about the “tarmac meeting” not only made him famous and allowed him to publish a book, called “Secret on the Tarmac”, but also resulted in him and his family getting numerous death threats and suffering from harassment.

The journalist also shared his take on the tarmac story, claiming that what transpired there was “a bit unusual”, in his opinion. He dismissed Loretta Lynch’s explanations and insisted it was a “planned meeting” rather than a “coincidence”.
