“Zullo told WND that he had no interest in working on an ebook, but was faced with the question about how to get the information to the American people absent national media coverage.”

"members of the media were threatened with federal investigations.."

Why would anyone in the media feel threatened by an investigation? They are all clean and law abiding citizens with no embarrassing moments in their past, I would assume.

Abuse of power not befitting the Office of the President of the United States.

Isn’t this the same thing that happened in 2008 as reported by Canada Free Press?

In all seriousness, just how credible is WND these days ? I know their history and I read Poe’s book a long time ago and they’ve been right in the past but how about now ? Their site seems to go for the sensational but also often has some pretty whacky stuff too.

Makes the timing and nature of Andrew Breitbart’s untimely passing all the more curious.

This has been rumored/claimed/supposed since 2008.

No one has actually stepped up and verified that this happened to them or produced anything to support or verify that it happened.

Just the usual anonymous sources saying things and stuff..

"told by sources members of the media were threatened with federal investigations should they continue to report on the birth certificate issue. "

Yup. That's how Stalin did it.

I didn’t know that when Barry the Kenyan Guy said he was going to “fundamentally transform” this country that he meant he was going to turn it into a fascist police state. We’re in a heap of trouble.

I believe it. It is not JUST the MSM as though the MSM is one single entity. The MSM is comprised of print, audio, and visual as in Newspaper/magazine, radio, and television as well various and assorted new media resources. This comprises millions of people that have to be kept in line to tout the Leftist propaganda, and not vary from that which is demanded of them.

It would take extreme measures to keep that many people in line to present, and promote the lies they subject us to daily. No defectors means they are afraid for their lives IMO.

I’d still like to know who is on the other end of that telephone line to Chucky Schumer every single morning of the year. Who is that person telling Schumer what the days mantra, the days talking points are?

” - - - “During our investigation, we actually were told [that media] had been threatened with FTC investigations. Commentators [had been] threatened with their jobs,” Zullo said. The threats were so intimidating that some individuals quit their positions over safety concerns for their families, he said.”

Will the FBI turn into the modern day equivalent of the Gestapo?

Will there be another “Fast and Furious” style plan this time to forcibly control the MSM?

Were Eric-the-Holder’s ATF merely the shock troop trainees for 5 more years of Obamanation?

What a great time to be a truth-searching Journalist! Be the first in your office to discover how the first American Dictator took over America with help from “Both” political parties! Yes, indeed!

BTW, since the MSM has ALWAYS been the number one fan of Bolshevik Chairman Obama, why would Obama dictate that the MSM be silenced?

Oh! I forgot: Obama thinks that he is a Dictator, and that is what Dictators are supposed to do. My bad!

BTW, BTW, did you notice in the latest MSM poll that Obama received a 54 % job approval vote from women?

I guess that American Women love to be dictated to. (They have sure fooled me!)

In the article it keeps mentioning the “liberal” media. Is there another media I don’t know about?

This also explains why Ego-reilly, Hannity, Rush and every republican politician wouldn’t talk about it. This machine that took over this counry’s government is very powerful.

Martin wrote that the sheriff also failed to mention that much of the evidence concerned questions about the digital scan “that was already investigated and proven to be false” by another investigative agency, “National Review Online.”

Since when has National Review Online been an investigative agency?

Who would have ever thought that this would happen in the USA? /sarc> Remember 1992 and the bimbo eruptions suppression team, 1998 and the impeachment threats? History repeats.....

What gets me about articles like this is that they concentrate on the BC. They pull statements that it has been “debunked” and such. However, they fail to mention and ask these outfits that claim the BC forgery was “debunked” about the other part of the investigation- the forged selective service registration. To me that is the more serious of the two. That is tampering with a federal record.

Even MORE manila envelopes with pictures of family and loved ones left at people’s doorsteps or on windshields?

Really? /ridicule or irony or criticism, but not sarcasm

I guess the video from Breibart was a dud. I see no breaking news about Odingo.
