Look at all the trouble he had to go through to get the FBI to say 'there's no list'. Took him away from golf for at least a couple hours.

Just say - Yes, we choose the questions. You answer them. That's how this works, or is that too difficult?

From Wiklipedia:

The Streisand effect is an unintended consequence of attempts to hide, remove, or censor information, where the effort instead increases public awareness of the information.

The term was coined in 2005 by Mike Masnick after Barbra Streisand attempted to suppress the publication of a photograph showing her clifftop residence in Malibu, taken to document coastal erosion in California, inadvertently drawing far greater attention to the previously obscure photograph.
