Renowned reporter Bob Woodward called Hillary Clinton's connections to "pay for play" through the Clinton Foundation and the access she had given when she was secretary of state "corrupt" and something that voters should be troubled by, Woodward told Fox News' Chris Wallace on Sunday.

"Yes, it’s corrupt; it’s a scandal,” Woodward told the "Fox News Sunday" panel monitored by Wednesday's presidential debate moderator Wallace, and referencing back Wednesday's debate pivot by Clinton when asked about it.

"And she didn’t answer your question at all, and she turned to embrace the good work that the Clinton Foundation has done . . . But the mixing of speech fees, the Clinton Foundation and actions by the State Department which she ran are all intertwined. And it’s corrupt. You can’t just say it’s unsavory, but there’s no formal investigation going on now, and there are outs that they have.”

Woodward added the election won't be decided by the potential corruption – nor will Trump have any power by refusing to accept the election results.

"That's absurd," Woodward told Wallace. "It has no consequence.

"If Trump loses they're not going to let him in the White House. He's not going to have a transition team. To focus on that is wrong."
