Perhaps DWS wanted to spend time cleaning up her emails before letting anyone know that there was a problem.

Maybe DWS didn't report it because she KNEW it was an inside job.
Perhaps she KNEW it was one of her IT staff.
This angle should be looked at closely.
There is no separating Debbie from the Awan scandal.

And we never saw any evidence!
No one has ever examined the DNC server?!?!?
DNC officials said they did not believe any sensitive donor information was compromised. Instead, the hackers took aim at the thousands of pages of research DNC staffers compiled to use in attacking Trump during the presidential race.
In some respects, the files are a puzzling target: The most damning information was gathered for the express purpose of being made public. But security experts said that extensive files on a potential U.S. president would be the sort of information that foreign spy agencies would devote considerable resources to obtain.
"I would not be surprised if the Russians are looking for information on Donald Trump that they could use as leverage for extortion should he assume office. If that's the case, what better resource could there be than the other side's opposition research?"

Wasserman Schultz was so secretive that she didn’t even tell any of her fellow DNC officers that the servers had been breached until MINUTES before WaPo broke the news of the hack.
That, if true, 'gets to me' more than anything. Of course she knew about the breach... but who was her insider that called her up saying "yo Deb... the S is about to hit the F..... You best tell your peeps to prepare!"?
They are more criminal than anyone IMHO. Giving any sort of a "heads-up" ruins the chances of seeing a true reaction to a bombshell. These people are smart. Unless you drop the facts on them, no warning, they'll weasel out.
Even one minute ahead of time is enough for them to come up with an a$$ saving lie.

Well, given a forensic analysis of the stolen files, shows they were removed directly from a computer in the DNC HQ, she most likely was informed by an IT person that there had been files copied... although, it is entirely possible she didn't know until someone from media gave her a heads up.
It is not uncommon, for a reporter to call for comment on a story before it is broken to the public.
