Sharyl Attkisson resigns from CBS

CBS News' Investigative Correspondent Sharyl Attkisson, known during the Obama administration for her work on Solyndra, Benghazi and Operation Fast and Furious, has resigned from her position at the network.

Link here.

Her forthcoming book, ambiguously titled, "Stonewalled: One Reporter's Fight for Truth in Obama's Washington" should do good.

I wish her well.

I hope her taxes are in order and I am guessing that Fox News has already interviewed her. This article can give us all at least a glimmer of hope that not all MSM reporters are just carrying water for the Obama administration.

It's getting close to the time when the press will start focusing the attention away from the current administration and onto the Clintons.

Her book will probably get dusty real quick.

Sounds racist, anyway.

I had to laugh when I read that some people at CBS were concerned that she had an agenda. You know you're lost when you're worried about one case of bias while ignoring the dozens of other CBS employees that are biased in the other direction.

Yep. Somebody hollered, "Change step...." gave the command of execution and she gave them the finger. In that biz they probably call that amicable terms.
