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.”
Davis wrote a critical piece on Issa a few weeks later.
Attkisson was later subjected to hacking of her computer by people who remain unknown, but who likely belong to a government agency. She and CBS parted ways earlier in 2014, and Attkisson has since said that the network blocked her reports from airing.

There are no bombshells. There are no surprises. Obama could have butt sex with an ayatollah in the middle of Constitution Avenue and give him the keys to our nuclear arsenal, and nothing would happen.
I wonder why they didn’t just outright kill her? It is one thing to lean on her bosses to stop her or fire her; when you start doing burglaries you risk witnesses, video, local cops, etc. Maybe they had a Patriot Act search warrant in case they got caught in the act, then destroyed it after they ex-filtrated.
Here in Florida, we consider UF to be elite.
Screw them Yankees. I hope another 7 feet of snow lands on them.
