“higher-ups at the network moved on”

Their invitations to Tina Brown’s parties were threatened by that kind of reporting.

I saw this segment. She made no bones about what happened at the network.

Considering that it was obviously State-sponsored Terrorism, Treason, and Conspiracy... yeah, the investigation didn’t even scratch the surface.

It's fitting that the state-run lamestream media have an an award named after Edward R. Murrow. A communist from his days with the IIE and palling around the Wobblies while working as a logger, Murrow was a master of lies. His name wasn't even Edward -- it was really Egbert. He even lied about his age to Edward Klauber and Paul White of Columbia to get his job. Egbert lied to his wife, Janet, about the affair he was having with Ida Lou Anderson of Washington State College [sic].

Then in the late 30s, Murrow began a hiring spree of fellow travelers like Howie K. Smith, Eric Sevareid, lil' Dougie Edwards, Charlie Collingwood and Dickey Hottelet. Contrary to what's believed today, it was, in fact, Senator Joseph McCarthy who ultimately triumphed and was right in spite of the relentless smear campaign of Egbert and Freddie Friendly (another liar -- his name was really Ferdinand Wachenheimer). Don Hollenbeck, an intimate friend of Murrow, was exposed as a commie by Jack O'Brian of the Journal-American. Ol' Donnie cowardly committed suicide which devastated Egbert since one of his "boys" was no longer around.

The tradition of the CBS brand of vile anti-American hatred began long before Dan Rather and KKKronite. It was the loathsome Egbert R. Murrow who started it rolling. And in its wake, Murrow left his own harvest of shame.

Thirty years from now, the old folks’ homes will be filled with bitter journalists who sit there, filled with regrets of career opportunities squandered - while boring each other about their trips to Hawaii on Air Force One.

Thanks for posting this article with the complete transcript of Attkisson’s token appearance on FOX’s TV Show “Shout down your Guests” with roast-host Billy O’.

By ignoring the always rude and self-serving blatherings of Billy O’, this quote by Attkinsson leaps off the page:

” - - - I think there are larger things at play in the industry. Broadly, there are overarching concerns about, I would say just fear over original investigative reporting. There is unprecedented, I believe, influence on the media, not just the news, but the images you see everywhere. By well-orchestrated and well-financed campaigns of special interests, political interests and corporations. And I think all of that comes into play. - - - “

I hope that Attkisson fully develops that topic in her new book.
