James Comey Testifies before Senate Intelligence Committee

Does the NYT have a political platform in which they nominate a nominee to run for President of the United States?

That is how it is different and why they would change protocol.

Having a political platform doesn't make an entity not private.
 
Yes, Lynch told Comey to change language

And, Trump told Comey to end an criminal investigation.

Which is worse?
Well, because Comey is hurting his own credibility. He stated previously that he has never been pressured for a political reason regarding an investigation by the DOJ.

He just gave testimony that he felt pressured by DOJ for political reasons regarding an investigation.

NYT is not a 527 tax-exempt organization.

The NYT is a private sector for profit entity.

The DNC is a private entity organized under IRS code 527.

That is how they are different and why FBI should change protocol and have a 3rd party confirm an entities conclusion in which another conclusion has been discredited that the company relied upon to make another conclusion that is run by a Russian.

No he didn't, he as asked specifically if DOJ asked to HALT an investigation - not about changing the language.

Hirono: So, if the attorney general or senior officials at the Department of Justice opposes a specific investigation, can they halt that FBI investigation?

Comey: In theory, yes.

Hirono: Has it happened?

Comey: Not in my experience
