CBS News confirms multiple breaches of Sharyl Attkisson’s computer
wapo ^

Posted on 06/14/2013 7:58:50 AM PDT by sunmars

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.

That investigation has reached the following conclusions, according to CBS News spokeswoman Sonya McNair:

“A cyber security firm hired by CBS News has determined through forensic analysis that Sharyl Attkisson’s computer was accessed by an unauthorized, external, unknown party on multiple occasions late in 2012. Evidence suggests this party performed all access remotely using Attkisson’s accounts. While no malicious code was found, forensic analysis revealed an intruder had executed commands that appeared to involve search and exfiltration of data.

The MSM thought their loyalty placed them in the "Circle of Trust".

We need a graphic of an SS-officer or a “matrix-style” (Mr. Smith) enforcer, cell-phone to ear, asking, “Do you hear me NOW!”

Probably easy to grab an advert of the “Verizon geek” and swap some heads and attire.

Do you hear me NOW, Mrs. Atkinson....

0 is the bully. Keeping all in control by threats, favoritism, intimidating others with power.
Once some one successfully stand up to him. There will be an Avalanche of piling on!

Yep...a civil war is drawing closer and closer....in America. I don’t see any hope at all these days that it can be avoided. If the checks and balance powers of our republic fail....what other thing can a populace do to get justice?

CBS News is taking steps to identify the responsible party and their method of access.

I'm sure CBS will find it's some lone hacker from Cincinnati.
It CAN'T be their African communist hero who is behind this.

they’re too busy with pointless hearings and the acting outraged on TV while obmaa drags this out and carries on stalling and spying.

No one has been arrested, lost their pensions, no criminal charges brought forward because even the FBI is not investigating of which was obvious yesterday.

So what is the GOP to do, Mccain finds another war, others try to get millions if illegals here and now there is talk of bringing Syrians here , thousands of them.

Either states fight back which they are not as they saw AZ come under assault or millions of Americans go to the white house and stay there until Obama and his thugs are dragged out and all of them who is dong this are brought to justice under a new leadership

But who to trust. Could be the company you hire to check it out is on the take from you know who. Could be the tech guy who fixes your company’s comupters is on the take. Could be the various updates from Microsoft or Java or whatever is a bit more than a legit update.

Sorry, but you are dreaming.
The Democrat "mainstream" newsrooms worked too hard to get their African communist punk elected and reelected to turn on him now.
It's not going to happen.

They will, in fact, circle the wagons, spin, lie, and make excuses for their scumbag like no tomorrow. Oh sure, they'll feign outrage and confusion and disappointment and all the rest if they think they must. But in the end, they would endorse him for a third term if that was possible. You can take that to the bank.

Yeah on the computer but the box of pizza crusts and a couple of empty Red Bull cans in the wastebasket made him think twice.

apparently Holder’s not content to persecute that guy at Fox News (rosen?), he needs to go after the rest of Obama’s “enemies”

bgill ~:” But who to trust... “

Exactly !
Didn’t I just read here, a few days ago, that the FBI wanted access to software ‘back doors’ ?
Last I knew , that was criminal charge : ‘Criminal Tresspass’ , Burglary 3rd ( Felony).
I guess we will have Holder investigate Holder’s own “Just-US” dept.
Ever notice that these ongoing ‘investigations’ are just stalling techniques ??
No ending / No conclusion !!
It is a legalized ‘Daisey-Chain’ , .. or from my day , a “Circle-Jerk” .

Rosen was a ruse , a false flag !
Holder lied to the judge , even AFTER he went ‘judge shopping’.
It was just another “Just-Us” Dept. ‘Daisey-Chain’ investigation to take the heat off Zippy’s IRS debacle .

Bastard 0bama. He was so worried about what Sharyl was finding out about Benghazi, that he had the NSA (Nazis Spying on Americans) access her computer. Hmmmmm.. This is a bit chilling.

It might be possible for a REALLY good computer forensics person to identify WHERE the intrusions came from.

I have no doubt 0bama is using the NSA to spy on his political opponents and get their personal information to BLACKMAIL THEM.
