To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act.
### Background ###
FBI Director James Comey is believed to have a Twitter account under the moniker projectexile7. A media on this can be found here: http://gizmodo.com/this-is-almost-certainly-james-comey-s-twitter-account-1793843641
The email likely linked to this account, and which in turn belongs to James Comey, is reinhold_niebuhr@gmail.com.
### Request ###
I hereby request the following records:
- All emails received by reinhold_niebuhr@gmail.com from email addresses with the @twitter.com domain.
I request all cross-referenced records relevant to my inquiry.
In order to help to determine my status to assess fees, you should know that I am a journalist writing for Motherboard, VICE's technology and science site, and that this request is being made as part of news gathering.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Joseph Cox
