She's got a target audience, and I'm sure her book will sell with them. Enjoy it.
And if you were paying attention you would k ow what she has uncovered and what Obama is hiding.

Stop just taking the word of the MSM and educate yourself by getting info from other sources. Of course the MSM is covering for Obama.

there are hundreds of thousands of documents the govt refuses to release under the foia.

go to her site. She will educate you. Dont be a bias hack

Agreed. Once again we have been proven correct.

She's one of the few unbiased reporters out there, you just don't like the truth when it paints your politicians and liberal, main stream media in a bad light.

From the link:

Quote:
During the second presidential debate in 2012, Obama challenged Mitt Romney by insisting he had labeled the assault in Libya a terrorist attack the very next day. This became a huge controversy, especially since CNN’s Candy Crowley had sided with the president.
Turns out that Steve Kroft had conducted a “60 Minutes” interview with Obama the day after the attack, portions of which had never aired... a CBS colleague later read her another exchange from the interview:
KROFT: Mr. President, this morning you went out of your way to avoid the use of the word terrorism in connection with the Libya attack.
OBAMA: Right.
This is especially interesting coming from Howard Kurtz, who is a long time DC/media insider. This is not something coming from the website of Alex Jones or some such. This is a guy who was at the WA Post for 29 years and CNN for 15 years.

Never heard of her and I live here. I think she is a no body looking for attention.

Fair enough.

Anyway, do think her allegations have any merit or have you already dismissed them?

Her work computer was hacked. Her home computer was hacked.

This was a few months after Fox News reporter James Rosen was investigated as a "probable co-conspirator" in a criminal spying case after a State Department leak, and right around the same time the DOJ seized phone records for 20 lines used by the AP:

A few months after Attkissons computer hacking, the FCC was poised to put monitors inside newsrooms:

At the end of last year nearly 40 news outlets wrote a letter to the adminstration complaining of a lack of access to the president by independant journalists while allowing free reign by WH photographers:

Anyone who does not realize what has been happening by this administration to try and squash freedom of the press in this country has not been paying attention. It's not pretty.

Those would be the same people who aren't paying attention and don't realize that their very own freedoms are being squashed/suppressed bit by bit and they support that suppression.
