Sharyl Attkisson Dismisses Media Matters: ‘Paid, Left-Wing Blog’ [VIDEO]
The Daily Caller ^ | 11/5/14 | Alex Griswold

Posted on 11/05/2014 11:28:29 AM PST by Nachum

In an interview with Huffington Post Live, former CBS reporter Sharyl Attkisson hit back at criticism of her new book “Stonewalled” by the liberal group Media Matters, calling them a “paid left-wing blog” with close ties to President Obama and Hilary Clinton.

Attkisson said that she was not disturbed by criticism from “…the usual suspects. I mean, that’s part of the game. There are entire industries set up that perpetuate and work with partners in the quasi-news media or just bloggers online…” (RELATED: Reporter Says Federal Government May Have Hacked Her Computer)

Huffington Post Live host Alyona Minkovski asked Attkisson if she was referring to Media Matters. “Absolutely,” she responded

“What’s going on between you and [Media Matters]?” Minkovski pressed.

“I guess you’d have to ask them,” she said, “I try not to read them and look at them. They’re a paid left-wing blog, they’re very closely associated with Hilary Clinton and the Obama administration. You know, I think they have a job to do. I don’t think there’s anything necessary illegal about putting out information, even if it’s false.” (RELATED: Fox’s ‘The Five’ SLAMS Media Matters: ‘Inaccurate, Erroneous And Shameful’)

“... I don’t think there’s anything necessary illegal about putting out information, even if it’s false.

True, but unsettling.

There is a large amount of disinformation about BHO2 which is available to the U.S. public. It is purposeful propaganda, mostly used to curry popularity with the Black population in Illinois. That is why he changed his name: from Barry Soetoro, foreign student from Indonesia, to that of Barak Hussein Obama II, born in Kenya from a white American mother.

The above fiction, for he was actually neither person, gave the Democrats incredible difficulties when they perceived him as their 2008 Presidential candidate. The birth certificate that existed in Hawaii’s Department of Health was an adoption BC for the biological son of Stanley Ann Dunham Obama (SADO) and Barack Hussein Obama. The boy, when adopted by Lolo Soetoro morphed into Barry Soetoro, Muslim and Indonesian son of Lolo.

Lolo already had six children, three boys and three girls, all Jakarta street kids according to Lia Soetoro Soba. One of the six street kids, a boy who had been a male child prostitute on the streets of Jakarta, had a gift for languages and learned English well enough to end up in Hawaii when SADO’s son died (c. 1973) from injuries sustained by a fall from a Mango tree in the Soetoro family’s garden in Jakarta in the late 1960s.

The reason why the Jakarta street kid attended Punahoi starting in 1975 and graduating from Columbia University in the mid-1980s is another story which our government definitely is afraid to tell us. It involves the CIA.

Many of my sources are on your Death List, which isn’t surprising.

The story sort of writes itself.

I can add something to this thread from personal knowledge. When Ariana Huffington was married to former congressman Michael Huffington, a wealthy Californian who ran for the US Senate. During that race they were visited by David Brock, then a writer at the American Spectator. Brock returned to Washington and boasted of having been hosted at the Huffington home. At that time both Huffingtons’ and Brock pretended to be conservatives. Both Brock and Michael Huffington later announced, separately, that they were gay.

I do not suggest that there was a relationship between the two.

Just a personal observation.

Media Matters. I have heard their satellite radio program. It’s a bunch of snarky kids who think they are clever and live in mommy’s basement. I can see Pajama Boy working for Media Matters.
