Former CBS News reporter sues Justice Department for $35 million alleging her family was put under surveillance while she covered Benghazi

A former reporter with CBS News is suing the U.S. Department of Justice, alleging she was illegally spied on and digitally monitored.

Sharyl Attkisson's lawsuit alleges that the illegal surveillance took place while she covered stories on Benghazi and the Fast and Furious gunwalking case and refers to three forensic exams conducted on computers.

She is suing over alleged violations of the First and Fourth Amendments, and her husband and daughter are named as co-plaintiffs.

Attorney General Eric Holder, United States Postmaster General Patrick R. Donahoe, as well as 'unknown named agents' - including those at the Department of Justice and the US Postal Service - are named as defendants in the multi-million dollar lawsuit.

try a injustice department. The only people to get justice is the in crowd of Obama supporters and even they don’t get justice if some one who has done a injustice to them is higher on the food chain.

The more watching Sharyl does the more one has to realize, in all the media, that safety comes only from telling the truth about obama and his crowd. Sharyl is to be commended for leading the way and the lame-stream and their families will be some of the first to be fed to the alligators once their (the lame-stream’s) usefulness has ended. Too bad the lame-stream has no clue.

if am not mistaken the president of cbs’s brother is working for zer0 at the white hut. There is some sort of relationship there. Not certain am recalling absolutely correct though but there is a person in zer0’s inner circle that is kin to cbs’s president.

“She is an American Hero. What a great American.”

What she is, is a great example to anyone else in the non-Fox Major Media that would dare to go against, or counter, the Media Matters-approved CURRENT TRUTH(tm), as dictated by the Obamunists and the Journo-listers.

-Loss of your job.
-Loss of your career.
-Having your reputation impuned and destroyed by compromised and incredibly biased Obamunist Administration mouthpieces.
-Full government anal examination from the IRS to criminal.

A GLARING example of what could happen to other high-profile media types, reminding them that they are EASILY replaceable if they dare to go against the approved grain, that no one else in the Major Media can miss.

They needed a major example of what they could do to anyone that dared to disagree, and they made it with her, just as Soros proved he could wreck Murcoch if he didn’t take Glenn Beck and his inconvenient truths off of the airwaves.

And UNDERSTAND THIS...
If Rupert M. did give a damn about being popular at the Manhattan and London parties, we wouldn’t have FOX as a voice. either.

“the president of cbs’s brother is working for zer0 at the white hut”

The current President of CNN wrote Obama’s “Styrofoam columns” stadium speech while he was the President of NBC Entertainment, as well.

I was quite disappointed and frankly put off by her shilling her one item conservatism to an apparently gullible crowd.

Please re read her book, there is surprisingly little that I identify with. She was and is a balls out liberal with a Halloween mask.
