The government person doesn't characterize it as evidence, only information.

So they are sharing the information vs sharing the evidence. Which isn't very satisfying, but it is at least coherent.

The speaker probably could have articulated it a little better and not played so coy about the line of questioning.

It’s a fair point. They were sort of talking past each other about information and evidence.

What definitions of evidence and information are you using?

I am referring to the specific words in the transcript that they were using as they talked past each other, not trying to (re)define anything. The member of the press seemed to be under the impression that information should be associated with evidence, while the speaker did not.
