Sharyl Attkisson left her job as a CBS News correspondent the other day, apparently because the news agency wouldn’t run her articles which were critical of the Obama presidency. According to our buddy Eric Wemple<\/a>, a media critic at the Washington Post;<\/p>\n

Rumors of Attkisson\u2019s stormy relations with her superiors at CBS News have made the rounds for months and months. In conversations from last year, CBS News sources told the Erik Wemple Blog that Attkisson, who came to the network from CNN two decades ago, was frustrated that more of her reporting on Benghazi and other investigative pieces didn\u2019t make \u201cThe CBS Evening News\u201d with greater frequency.<\/p>\n

Attkisson herself didn\u2019t help matters when she said on a Philadelphia radio show last May that her computers had been hacked, and she even went so far as to suggest that the intrusions could have had something to do with her work investigating the government. CBS News later confirmed breaches of her computer, though it never disclosed who had been responsible for them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I suppose that being a reporter for a news organization who won’t run your work is like being a plumber who no one allows to fix the plumbing. CBS did put her product on their webpages<\/a>, but it hardly ever made it to Americans’ television screens. But CBS news never makes it to my TV screen anyway. <\/p>\n

In the comments, Washington Post readers are glad that she left because Koch Brothers, Faux News, etc… I suppose that they’re unaware that the things they believe are wrong because they can’t stomach criticism of “their guy”, that no real information will penetrate their tiny, closed minds. They’re feelings are more important than facts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
