Sharyl Attkisson spoke with Philadelphia radio host Dom Giordano Friday about the latest Benghazi news and how she believes that the media is slowly becoming more interested in covering the story and sounding the alarm about the press restrictions being imposed by the Obama administration, in spite of their early pledge to be the most transparent administration.
Attkisson said this weeks big Benghazi revelations arent necessarily new information, but now there an appetite for the information in the mainstream press that wasnt there before. She pointed out how there are journalists from every news organization starting to speak out on how much theyre being muzzled by the White House.
They were sounding the alarm. These were reporters from The New York Times and many other places saying that the Obama Administration is imposing unprecedented restrictions on the media and this is something we need to be very concerned about. Attkisson said the climate under the Obama administration has not been good for investigative journalism and the journalists who were hoping for a more transparent White House are now openly saying this is worse for transparency than the Bush administration.

I thought the same thing when I heard the Greta interview. Not so sure I trust Sharyl Attkisson, she seems to me to be a bit too tight in her interviews.

A compilation of Major Garrett/Carney videos. Apparently Major Garrett is not afraid.
It’s a few years to later to save America from some terrible times, if it’s even sincere. I’m concerned that this is a complicit media election strategy.
Too late. So-called journalists have willingly worn the WH muzzle for over 5 years because he was their guy.
After six years of the liberal lamestream media on their knees worshipping Obama while performing fellatio on him, there's no way in hell I'll ever believe the media finally "gets it" and starts reporting the truth.
The liberal lamestream media's behavior these past six years are EXACTLY why I say the media MUST be the first casualty when the revolution starts. The only way the truth is told is if they're six feet under.
I think you’re right. This WH has been insulting even to the lap-dog press, and the pressies are stinging from the kicks and contempt it’s given them. Maybe payback is coming...
BINGO! The same pertains to the power they associate with public office. The corruption is immense. The love of money is very much in play as well. To the extent these people forget what public service is about, they will run themselves and everyone around them into the ground. It will not be pretty when they fall, and they WILL fall.
The media won’t mind crucifying Obama, as they did Carter. The reason is that they are making beralism look bad (Clintin got a pass because of the Reagan economic miracle made him look successful in the eyes of the average dip$hit). Their first allegiance is to their religion of totalitarianism, and Obama’s failures will be blamed in hm, not the ideology. Remember, what made Carter a crap president was not his character, but his willingness to implement a failed political ideology.
That is exactly what Lenin and Stalin did in Russia and what became the Soviet Union. Once there usefulness was no longer needed, they were eliminated. The lucky ones were shot. The unlucky worked for years in the Gulag and then died.
There are two books that everyone should read but unfortunately are not. The books are 1984 by George Orwell and The Gulag Archipelago by Alexander Solzhenitsyn. These two books will make absolutely clear what has happened in our nation since President Franklin Delanor Roosevelt to our present President Barrack Obama.
Although both were of similar thought there is one huge difference. Roosevelt was a patriot but also a fool. Obama is not a patriot nor is he a fool.
Hooray for Sharyl, she is a gutsy lady IMHO and I hope she start working for FNC or a similar org.
But Hillary is in it up to her ears. I am buying heavy in popcorn stock - prices are going to skyrocket when Gowdy gets her on the stand.
Do you have any likely candidates?
As far as I can surmise, Kerry is going to be questioned about the emails that Judicial Watch obtained and maybe about how emails suddenly went from unclassified to classified.
He has plausible deniability for the gun running, I think.
It's going to land on Hillary and that makes it even more amazing about the media's seeming interest at this point.
Barry is such a lightweight he couldn’t be an anchor on a ant’s a@@!
Do not be fooled though, because reporting on these events are still Democrat Damage Control measures designed to spin away the worst of the information exposure.
It is my sense, being in a country of blind people, that about half of the young folks in America today who are faced with getting a job will turn on the Donkey just as they did with Carter.
Hillary comes to mind.
The press is not where the shame belongs GOPJ. They do not fool you. They do not fool me.
We're not asking them to be 'Republican', we're asking them to act with a modicum of professionalism and integrity...
