Sharyl Attkisson’s computers compromised – POLITICO.com.
Sharyl Attkisson, the Emmy-award winning CBS News investigative reporter, says that her personal and work computers have been compromised and are under investigation.
“I can confirm that an intrusion of my computers has been under some investigation on my end for some months but I’m not prepared to make an allegation against a specific entity today as I’ve been patient and methodical about this matter,” Attkisson told POLITICO on Tuesday. “I need to check with my attorney and CBS to get their recommendations on info we make public.”
I found this shocking but I’m really not sure why. A little thought and common sense would suggest it was expected, especially for an “out of line” MSM reporter.
How long has this been going on?
Attkisson told WPHT that irregular activity on her computer was first identified in Feb. 2011, when she was reporting on the Fast and Furious gun-walking scandal and on the Obama administration’s green energy spending, which she said “the administration was very sensitive about.” Attkisson has also been a persistent investigator of the events surrounding last year’s attack in Benghazi, and its aftermath.
So this thought occurs to me. How does an MSM reporter determine if they are a lapdog for the administration?
Hah, their computer has no signs of “irregular activity”!
Townhall.com’s reporting on this issue concludes…
This won’t stop here. It is clear Obama’s Department of Justice, with Attorney General Eric Holder at the helm, has made monitoring reporters routine.
Unfortunately, all too believable.
h/t to Uncle Bob.
