The best point to start is at 30 minutes.
I also want to point out the date of this speaking engagement, October 26th.
Broadwell and Petraeus were interviewed by the FBI and admitted their affair on October 21st.
On October 26th this is what Petraeus was doing:
From The Weekly Standard:
Breaking news on Benghazi: the CIA spokesman, presumably at the direction of CIA director David Petraeus, has put out this statement: "No one at any level in the CIA told anybody not to help those in need; claims to the contrary are simply inaccurate. ”

Now I want to remind you what Paula said in her speech:
“The challenging thing for Gen. Petraeus,” she stated, “is that in his new position, he’s not allowed to communicate with the press. So he’s known all of this – they had correspondence with the CIA station chief in Libya, within 24 hours they kind of knew what was happening.”
So here we have a coordinated effort to protect CIA and implicate the White House.
