"Email Proves that White House, DOJ Targeted Reporter Sharyl Attkisson"

"One of the documents provides smoking gun proof that the Obama White House and the Eric Holder Justice Department colluded to get CBS News to block reporter Sharyl Attkisson. Attkisson was one of the few mainstream media reporters who paid any attention to the deadly gun-running scandal."
In an email dated October 4, 2011, Attorney General Holder’s top press aide, Tracy Schmaler, called Attkisson “out of control.” Schmaler told White House Deputy Press Secretary Eric Schultz that he intended to call CBS news anchor Bob Schieffer to get the network to stop Attkisson.

Schultz replied, “Good. Her piece was really bad for the AG.”

Schultz also told Schmaler that he was working with reporter Susan Davis, then at the National Journal, to target Rep. Darrel Issa (R-CA). Issa led the House investigation into Fast and Furious. Davis now works at USA Today. In the email chain, Schultz tells Schmaler that he would provide Davis with “leaks.”

The mainstream press is an arm to the democrat party. If you, as an employee of the MSM, do not follow orders, you will be purged.

I guess it's good to know this stuff, but there is nothing to do about it.

Obama could fuck a goat and molest a little girl on national TV, and there would be no repercussions for him.

She's a real reporter (notice I didn't say journalist?), of course Holder had to protect his people from an honest woman.

I'm not sure it proves what people claim it proves.

It does however prove that the White House was willing to collude with Journalist to leak information on Republicans. I think Issa should subpoena Schultz and ask where he got the information he was leaking.

Great post. Atkisson is a superb reporter and the demonizing of her has begun by the Alinsky crowd. She predicted in her book exactly how they have come at her. But, she is an intelligent and eloquent woman.

They also just (with a judge looking over their shoulder) "found" 30,000 Lois Lerner emails. Soo-pwized!
