CBS's Sharyl Attkisson revealed on Tuesday's "Laura Ingraham Show" the extent of the rage directed at her from the Obama administration for her reporting on the "Fast and Furious" controversy: "The DOJ woman was just yelling at me. A guy from the White House on Friday night literally screamed at me and cussed at me." Attkisson also stated that "they think I'm unfair and biased by pursuing it."
In commie world people just disappear.
Nah...she’ll get a notice from the IRS
she need help, no doubt.
Cool.
Keep up the pressure ladies and gents...they’re cracking.
Right, and we haven’t heard another word about the Wheeler killing that I know of.
They will tell you that I'm the only reporter- as they told me- that is not reasonable. They say 'The Washington Post' is reasonable, the 'LA Times' is reasonable, 'The New York Times' is reasonable- I'm the only one who thinks this is a story, and they think I'm unfair and biased by pursuing it. and there it is...
If someone from the Bush administration treated a CBS reporter so badly would the network have made a big deal of it?
In any case it sounds like the administration isn’t used to dealing with any hostility or tough questions from the media so this surprised them. They no longer are invincible and are surprised not everyone bows and scrapes to them.
“She better be grateful thats all they do to her, and that she doesn`t have an “accident.” Her life probably isn`t worth a plugged nickel.”
Well, Jesus Christ, rather than laying down like a bunch of God-damn wimps, offer Sharyl Attkisson protection. I’m not close enough to her position to do that.
And if you can’t protect the woman, send her to my position and we’ll take care of her.
Conservatives are as f’n useless as liberals.
How dare her ask that a black president and AG be held accountable for anything?
What the heck is she thinking and how long until CBS assigns her to cover the frontline in Afghanistan?
This is how true believers deal with problems.
Zero knew all about “Fast and Spurious”. In fact it may have even been his idea. Remember when he told the Brady Bunch, “We are doing something through back channels to advance gun control.” Fast and Spurious was it. How else can you expalin coordination between FBI, DEA, and ATF? Does anyone actually think all these agencies would coordinate something like this without an orders from “on high”?
Fast and Spurious was suppose to give some modicum of substance to the lie they have been telling for years that “90% of the guns in Mexico come from US gunstores.” BS doesn’t even make sense. Why would a drug lord who can get a full auto AK 47 for $75 spend $475 for a semi auto in a US gun store. Do they really expect us to believe that a guy who makes his living smuggling drugs into the US would have no access to International Arms merchants to smuggle guns into Mexico? Really????
And the person doing the screaming & cussing was Eric Schultz, the associate communications director at the White House.
For the record, Schultz is the associate communications director at the White House and was the former head of communications for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. Tracy Schmaler worked at Yahoo! as their senior director for global public affairs, and before that, for Senator Pat Leahy on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Near the end of the interview, the journalist revealed that the Obama White House even accused her of being biased:

Laura has made the interview available on her website, if you want to listen to it.
