CBS News reporter Sharyl Attkisson revealed in May that her computer had been compromised. When asked about the situation, CBS News responded with a statement that it was conducting an investigation.

Probably easy to grab an advert of the “Verizon geek” and swap some heads and attire.
WTF CBS confirms and the WAPO reports...This has to be one of the signs of the Apocalypse!
“In response, we have asked all reporters not to use their computers at all. The White House will now fax us the news. “
