DOJ and Media Matters coordinated Fast and Furious reports
Examiner.com ^ | 9/18/12 | David Corea

The Department of Justice and Media Matters corresponded and coordinated on stories about Operation Fast and Furious “gunwalking,” going so far as to disparage the citizen journalist who initially broke the story, Matthew Boyle of The Daily Caller reported today, citing emails obtained from a Freedom of Information Act request to determine the extent of cooperation between the government and the “progressive” advocacy group.

“The emails…often show department public affairs chief Tracy Schmaler communicating with Media Matters bloggers,” Fox News reported in a follow-up story noting the arrangement targeted administration critics. “Sometimes, the emails were in response to inquiries. Other times, Schmaler was pitching ideas, according to the Caller.” "A major subversion of the purpose of that office..." Video: Has the DOJ been using Media Matters to spin the press?

“Nice to know the Gunwalker criminals are paying attention,” Mike Vanderboegh of Sipsey Street Irregulars observed in his response to the story, which included emails where Media Matters’ Matt Gertz told DOJ spokeswoman Tracy Schmaler that Vanderboegh was “three inches away from being an insurrectionist.”

If Vanderboegh was 'three inches' away from being an insurrectionist', does that mean the rest of us are a few inches more?

“Media Matters’ Matt Gertz told DOJ spokeswoman Tracy Schmaler that Vanderboegh was ‘three inches away from being an insurrectionist.’”

I also understand that the doj is investigating several Fox news anchors, including Judge Napolitano, for ‘sedition’.
Can you even manage to imagine this treasonous bunch investigating ANYONE for sedition?

Obama Democracy with a small d

I guess that means a 'Free Press" with a small 'f' too.

“What I saw at the coup”

People wind up being hanged for treason at the end of this short story. I hope they read it carefully at the Dept of No Justice.

FOX News needs to stay on this story - this dem “war room’ type of activity is the tip of an iceberg.
