| Subject: Sharyl Attkisson Leaves CBS News, Liberal Bias Cited Tue Mar 11, 2014 11:13 pm | |
| The woman who became a thorn in the side of the Obama administration has now resigned from CBS due to what she claims as Liberal bias. I for one could see this coming a mile away. The only MSM network that allows criticism of this current administration is Fox and we all know that they don't do it quite right either. This to me is clear proof that the Liberal agenda is working it's way through the media industries and if you work for these people and do not agree with them or report against the liberal agenda then you will be "Stonewalled" as this woman was. In the end it boils down to honest and fair reporting and the first amendment. These two things are two of the Liberal crowds biggest enemies and that is exactly why they are working so diligently to take over all media and control it to their liking. After all General James Mattis once said of the Cambodian people during their genocidal struggle that a mans words can be more powerful than a Marine with a rifle. Source. - Quote :
- Sharyl Attkisson, an award-winning CBS News investigative reporter who doggedly pursued the Benghazi and Fast and Furious scandals, resigned from the network yesterday. Attkisson was reportedly frustrated by CBS News’ liberal bias.
Attkisson was honored in 2012 with an Edward R. Murrow Award for her coverage of the Fast and Furious gunrunning debacle, which involved the murder of U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry. Attkisson shifted gears to cover the Benghazi terrorist attack that left four members of the U.S. diplomatic mission dead.
Politico‘s Dylan Byers reported Monday that Attkisson “had grown frustrated with what she saw as the network’s liberal bias, an outsized influence by the network’s corporate partners and a lack of dedication to investigative reporting.”
“She increasingly felt like her work was no longer supported and that it was a struggle to get her reporting on air,” Byers wrote.
Attkisson, who worked at CBS News for two decades, is writing a book tentatively titled, “Stonewalled: One Reporter’s Fight for Truth in Obama’s Washington.”
It was Attkisson’s pursuit of the truth about Obama Administration scandals that “led network executives to doubt the impartiality of her reporting,” according to Byers.
He added, “While some championed her relentless dedication to investigations — ranging from defective Firestone Tires to the Fast and Furious gunwalking scandal — others saw evidence of a political agenda, particularly against President Obama.”
Politico previously reported Attkisson’s frustration that CBS News would not air her stories on Benghazi.
